Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Repair chips before they stain
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
For a price in Upper Edmonton, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Upper Edmonton: your questions answered
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Usually, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
