Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Saxton
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Advice
Common questions in Saxton
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Will you remove the sink?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
