Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Birnam. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.

Advice
Birnam questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Generally, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
