DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use gentle cleaners
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Advice
Common questions in Preston St Mary
Do the materials smell?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Will the price change on the day?

How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you need sink repair in Preston St Mary?
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
