Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Wixams
If you manage property in Wixams, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaks from the fittings
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid abrasive pads
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
