When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Through cracks that let water out
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
