Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Widespread crazing
- Through cracks that let water out
