When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
