What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
When we would advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair

Porthill: your questions answered
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Send us photos and we will tell you.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
