Resin object repair
Jacob Norden's workshop in Waterloo, 15 minutes from Brussels — over 30 years of experience
Resin is everywhere in our homes: animal figures, decorative statues, collectable figurines, reproductions of artworks, religious objects. Light and easy to cast, it is still fragile: an ear, a paw or a base breaks off easily. At the Waterloo workshop, repairing resin objects is part of our everyday work.
Contrary to popular belief, resin repairs very well. The pieces are rejoined with a suitable adhesive, missing parts are rebuilt, then the surface is sanded, repainted and patinated to recover the original colours and finish. Old or recent, valuable piece or family keepsake: we treat it with the same care.
What we repair
- Resin animal figures and decorative sculptures
- Collectable figurines and characters
- Resin statues and religious objects
- Reproductions and casts of artworks
- Rebuilding broken ears, paws, hands, horns or bases
- Paint, patina and varnish matched to the original
Rejoin, rebuild, recolour
We clean the breaks, remove any old glue and assemble the fragments. A missing part is modelled by hand or copied from a symmetrical part of the object. After sanding, we rework the paint and patina so the repair blends into the whole. Send us photos for a free quote.
