How we handle sink repair in Caeharris
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. We regularly repair antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on a built-in basin and a crack near the taps.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
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 usually the cheaper route.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Caeharris. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

What we can’t put right
A repair is not right for every job, for example:

Your questions about sink repair in Caeharris
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you cover the entire of Merthyr Tydfil?
All of Merthyr Tydfil, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Are there extra charges for Caeharris?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use gentle cleaners
- Don’t overtighten taps
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
