What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- 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 typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage

When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

- Through cracks that let water out
- Widespread crazing
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Get chips repaired early
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

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
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
When to call us in Lockerbie
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Chips on a built-in basin
Questions to ask before you book
- How soon you can use it again
- How your room will be protected
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
