Why repair rather than replace?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Get chips repaired early
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
What a repair cannot fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
