Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
When to call us in Birchover
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Chips around the rim
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
What your quote should include

- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Get chips repaired early
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
