Sink repair in Defynnog, done in place
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. We are frequently asked to fix a crazed, tired basin and chips on a built-in basin, on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Defynnog. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why Defynnog clients choose us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One visit for most repairs
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Same prices wherever you are
Take a look at our prices page.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Your questions about sink repair in Defynnog
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Defynnog.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
When we’d advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
