What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Aberdare West. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Aberdare West questions
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
The process
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
For a price in Aberdare West, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Advice
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

What we’re called out for in Aberdare West
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Chips around the rim
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Crazing in the glaze
- A chipped vanity basin
What your quote should include
- How the colour is matched
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What happens if they find more damage
- What protection goes down before work starts
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Repair chips before they stain
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use mild cleaners only
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Why repair rather than replace?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
