What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Cwmfelinfach. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- One picture of the whole basin
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
If you are in Cwmfelinfach and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Questions from Cwmfelinfach
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a couple of hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
What we’re called out for in Cwmfelinfach
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, along with damage during fitting.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Crazing in the glaze
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- An antique basin with chips
- A crack near the taps
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- When it can be used again
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Repair chips before they stain
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Should you replace it?
Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Through cracks that let water out

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
