How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Have new chips repaired quickly
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

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.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your LA12 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
What affects the price in Little Urswick
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Little Urswick. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
