DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
What we are called out for in West Lavington
Fine crazing in the glaze is generally down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
Clients normally contact us about:
- Crazing in the glaze
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use gentle cleaners
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Questions from West Lavington
Do you cover the whole of West Sussex?
Across the UK, so West Lavington is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
