Felin-hên: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you work in Felin-hên?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Felin-hên. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will you remove the sink?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What we do, step by step
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Most people contact us when they notice something like this:

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
