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. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Most customers in Bron-y-waun get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Bron-y-waun
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bron-y-waun as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Do not overtighten taps
- Use mild cleaners only
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Bron-y-waun: your questions answered
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Usually, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you come to Bron-y-waun?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Bron-y-waun from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
