How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Get chips repaired early
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Irby Hill questions
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Do you cover Irby Hill?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Irby Hill. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaks from the fittings
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Irby Hill. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Wirral and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
