Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Sink repair in Aber-miwl without replacing anything
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is typically repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and common reasons people get in touch are knocks from hair straighteners and chips on a built-in basin.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole basin
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
