What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can I add another job to the visit?

- One picture of the entire basin

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Use gentle cleaners
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Do you need sink repair in Yelden?
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.
