It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We regularly repair antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and common reasons people contact us are a period basin that needs restoring and crazing in the glaze.

Questions from Balemartine
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Repair or replace in Balemartine?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Common problems we fix in Balemartine
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
