We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
When to call us in Nether Broughton
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- An antique basin with chips
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is matched
- If travel is included in the price
- How your room will be protected
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out

Other services in Nether Broughton
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not 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.
Landlord and trade work in Nether Broughton
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Repair chips before they stain
- Do not overtighten taps
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
