DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
About our sink repair in Aber-arad
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We’re frequently asked to fix chips around the rim and an original basin worth saving, across Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Aber-arad
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use gentle cleaners
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a couple of hours for most chips. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Do you work in Aber-arad?
We do. We send a technician to Aber-arad for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Does someone need to be in?

Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
What a repair can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
