Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
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 it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
