Common questions in Craig-y-Don

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Conwy. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Why repair rather than replace?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Work for landlords and builders

Do you need sink repair in Craig-y-Don?

Fine crazing in the glaze is typically down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • A crack near the taps
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • An antique basin with chips

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

How to compare quotes

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Craig-y-Don, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

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

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Widespread crazing

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Craig-y-Don

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

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
