Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Use mild cleaners only
- Do not overtighten taps
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Kirkoswald questions
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Do you cover Kirkoswald?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Kirkoswald and the rest of South Ayrshire. 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.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaks from the fittings

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
