FAQs for Cresselly

Do you work in Cresselly?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Cresselly and the rest of Pembrokeshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Widespread crazing

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

What we work on

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

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cresselly use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Should you replace it?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SA68 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Related advice

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Cresselly. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
