How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
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.
What a repair can’t fix
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed

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 is not prepared the repair will not last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
Signs you need sink repair in Seton
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
