The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use mild cleaners only
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Go 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 the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

- A year’s guarantee on all work

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
