Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Lochardil
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
DIY kit or professional 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

FAQs for Lochardil
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
