How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Plumley: your questions answered
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
I rent my home. Can I book you?

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use mild cleaners only
- Get chips repaired early
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Common problems we fix in Plumley
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
Look out for any of the following:
- An antique basin with chips
- A chipped vanity basin
- Cracks starting at the waste
- A crazed, tired basin

Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
