Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Potterton questions
Do you work in Potterton?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Potterton. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What we work on
- Vanity unit basins

- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use mild cleaners only
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
