What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Cwmdwyfran. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most clients in Cwmdwyfran get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Other services in Cwmdwyfran
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Cwmdwyfran, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cwmdwyfran as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
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 often lifts.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
