Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Moresby Parks questions
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Typically, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What we are called out for in Moresby Parks
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.
The things customers typically mention when they call are:
- A chipped basin edge
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- A crazed, tired basin
Questions to ask before you book
- How your room will be protected
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Who will actually do the work
- How soon you can use it again
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
