Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Repair chips before they stain
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

West Street questions
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in West Street.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so West Street is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
