DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Prices and what affects them

- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Through cracks that let water out
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Get chips repaired early
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
