How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use gentle cleaners
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we’re called out for in Ludford
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- A crazed, tired basin
- A chipped basin edge
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
Comparing quotes
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- When it can be used again
