Sink repair for Cymer and Glyncorrwg homes

Sink repair in Cymer and Glyncorrwg without replacing anything

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We’re frequently asked to fix chips from dropped toiletries and an original basin worth saving, across vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Composite and resin

Questions from Cymer and Glyncorrwg

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Do you come to Cymer and Glyncorrwg?

We do. Technicians travel to Cymer and Glyncorrwg from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Why repair rather than replace?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Plumbing leaks

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cymer and Glyncorrwg as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Cymer and Glyncorrwg. The price comes down to:

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin

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

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
