How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the day after.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit

Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire basin
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
