Sink repair in Cwmbach, done in place
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Our technicians work on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are an antique basin with chips and a crack near the taps.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Cwmbach questions
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you quote from pictures?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Avoid abrasive pads
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Cwmbach. The price reflects:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Cwmbach. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Related advice
When we would advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Why repair rather than replace?
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. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
