About our sink repair in Cadoxton

If the whole basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. Whether it’s an original basin worth saving and chips around the rim, we can help, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins alike.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

Your questions about sink repair in Cadoxton

Can pets and children be at home?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cadoxton

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Repair or replace in Cadoxton?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. 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.

What we’re called out for in Cadoxton

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.

Look out for these signs:

  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • A period basin that needs restoring

Comparing quotes

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Our hiring checklist

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed quote.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
