What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
When to call us in Marywell
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- A crazed, tired basin
- Chips around the rim
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What preparation is included
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Common questions in Marywell
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Do you cover the entire of Aberdeen?
The entire UK, including all of Aberdeen. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Are there extra charges for Marywell?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Frequently. Send us pictures and we will tell you.
How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.
