Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Cilgerran: your questions answered
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do you cover the entire of Ceredigion?
All of Ceredigion, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Cilgerran.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Do you need sink repair in Cilgerran?
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A chipped vanity basin
- A period basin that needs restoring
- A crazed, tired basin
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
Before you book anyone
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What protection goes down before work starts
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How soon you can use it again

Should you replace it?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

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