Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Get chips repaired early
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Oxton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
