When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

What we’re called out for in Blaenau

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

People typically call us when they notice one of these:

  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • An original basin worth saving

How to compare quotes

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Blaenau

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Carmarthenshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repair or replace in Blaenau?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why Blaenau clients choose us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

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

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
