Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Do you need sink repair in Hollins Lane?

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
