Trusted sink repair in Bronwydd

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better

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

Surfaces we repair

  • Enamelled basins
  • Vanity unit basins

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

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

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

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Bronwydd. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Questions from Bronwydd

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Bronwydd?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
