DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
What affects the price in Kennethmont
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Common questions in Kennethmont
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
