How sink repair works in Gwynedd

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We work on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most frequently call us about cracks around the tap holes or waste and damage to a basin in a vanity unit.

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Cost

Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Same prices wherever you are

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repair or replace?

A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is.

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What prep work is covered

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

What we are called out for in Gwynedd

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Chips on a built-in basin

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Gwynedd questions

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Gwynedd. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
