When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Get chips repaired early
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
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.
