How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid abrasive pads
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
