Repairing versus replacing in Cefn
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Take a look at our full price list.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use mild cleaners only
- Do not overtighten taps
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Cefn. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

Cefn: your questions answered
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
