How to compare quotes

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair typically 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

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most clients in Caeo get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Caeo as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaks from the fittings

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Common questions in Caeo

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How much does sink repair cost in Caeo?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Caeo and the rest of Carmarthenshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Looking after it afterwards

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

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
