DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Sink repair at your home in Shooter's Hill
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Typical jobs include fine cracks across the glaze and a period basin that needs restoring, across ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
