What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
- Do not overtighten taps
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
