Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Get chips repaired early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon.
- 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.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your IP28 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
