Advice
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Repairing versus replacing in Kirkstead
A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What we’re called out for in Kirkstead
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Chips around the rim
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Crazing in the glaze
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What preparation is included
- How soon you can use it again
- What protection goes down before work starts
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Use mild cleaners only
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
