How We Repair Chipped & Cracked Porcelain Basins Using Polyurethane Resins

A chipped or cracked porcelain basin doesn't need replacing. Discover how our specialists use polyurethane resins and sprayable acrylic topcoats to carry out invisible, long-lasting repairs — saving you hundreds.

A chipped or cracked porcelain basin is one of the most common bathroom problems we encounter across London, Surrey, Kent and Sussex. At Surface Repair Group, we repair chipped and cracked porcelain basins every week using professional-grade polyurethane resin systems and sprayable polyurethane acrylic topcoats, achieving results that are structurally sound, waterproof, and virtually invisible.

Why Porcelain Basins Chip and Crack

Porcelain is vulnerable to impact and flex stress. Common causes include impact chips, rim cracks, thermal shock, and settlement cracks.

The Repair Materials: Why We Use Polyurethane Resins

We use two-part polyurethane resin systems for the fill and repair stage, and a sprayable polyurethane acrylic resin topcoat for the finishing stage — offering outstanding adhesion, flexible cure, and a high-gloss colour-matched result.
