Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin cracked through and leaking

Advice
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
