Sink repair for Bryn-llwyd homes

Common questions in Bryn-llwyd

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can normally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Sink repair in Bryn-llwyd without replacing anything

Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. If you’re dealing with chips around the rim and a chipped vanity basin, we can generally put it right.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

  • Fine cracks across the glaze

10 questions to ask before you book

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your LL57 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What we cannot put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Leaks from the fittings

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
