Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
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 typically the cheaper route.
Sink repair in Cwmfelin, done in place
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Typical jobs include fine cracks across the glaze and chips on the rim or front edge, in ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Honest limits

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

Materials we work on in Cwmfelin
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
