Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Do you need sink repair in Caer-went?

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • An original basin worth saving
  • A chipped basin edge

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Caer-went

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How it works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

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

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

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

Materials we repair

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

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

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 make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should you replace it?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Caer-went. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
