Before and after: a crack on the edge of a basin repaired

Should you replace it?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos 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 photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Common questions in Corwen

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

How much does sink repair cost in Corwen?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Plumbing leaks
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair
