DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Advice
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Millbank. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire basin
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Should you replace it?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Millbank. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
