Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
What affects the price in West Silvertown
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for West Silvertown. The price reflects:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

What we are called out for in West Silvertown
Basins take knocks every day: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Crazing in the glaze
- Chips around the rim
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A period basin that needs restoring
Comparing quotes
- What prep work is covered
- How long it needs to cure
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How changes to the job are handled
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Get chips repaired early
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
FAQs for West Silvertown
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.

- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive

- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
