Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Get chips repaired early
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
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.
