What a repair can’t fix

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Leaks from the fittings

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Sink repair in Aberllefenni, done in place

Period basins are worth keeping, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Our technicians work on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are crazing in the glaze and damage to a basin in a vanity unit.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Before and after: a crack on the edge of a basin repaired

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

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.

Your questions about sink repair in Aberllefenni

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Surface cracks can generally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

How much does sink repair cost in Aberllefenni?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SY20 postcode.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do you come to Aberllefenni?

We do. We send a technician to Aberllefenni for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can generally be used later that day or the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Aberllefenni. The price reflects:

  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
