DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
What affects the price in Lamerton
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lamerton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire basin
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
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’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
What we are called out for in Lamerton

How it works
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
