DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Horbling, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.

- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. 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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
