  • A crack near the taps
  • An antique basin with chips

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Common questions in Swettenham

Do you disconnect the taps?

Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Typically, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Are there extra charges for Swettenham?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
