How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Common problems we fix in Loddington
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- An antique basin with chips
- A crazed, tired basin
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
What to look for in a quote

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
Most clients in Loddington get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Loddington: your questions answered
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
