The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price

Shutlanger questions
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you cover Shutlanger?
We do. We send a technician to Shutlanger for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Common problems we fix in Shutlanger
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- An antique basin with chips
- A crazed, tired basin
- Cracks starting at the waste
Questions to ask before booking
- How your room will be protected
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How soon you can use it again
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
