What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

FAQs for Speldhurst
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can normally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Speldhurst, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
When to call us in Speldhurst
Fine crazing in the glaze is normally down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
People normally call us when they notice one of these:
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A chipped vanity basin
- A chipped basin edge
Before you book anyone
- What prep work is covered
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- If travel is included in the price
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
