Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Repair chips before they stain
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Widespread crazing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
