Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
How we handle sink repair in Overthorpe
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Our technicians work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the rim or front edge and chips on a built-in basin.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Overthorpe and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
