What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Braichmelyn: your questions answered

Are there extra charges for Braichmelyn?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is my repair covered?

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

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you disconnect the taps?

Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you are in Braichmelyn and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

How to compare quotes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Braichmelyn

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Gwynedd and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Why repair rather than replace?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
