What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

The things customers typically mention when they call are:
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- A chipped vanity basin

The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can normally use the basin later that day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Common questions in Wrotham Heath
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Generally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Landlord and trade work in Wrotham Heath
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wrotham Heath use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
