Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Sink repair at your home in Dolwyd
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins, and common reasons people get in touch are an original basin worth saving and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Get chips repaired early
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Dolwyd. The price reflects:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Signs you need sink repair in Dolwyd
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.
Clients usually contact us about:
- Crazing in the glaze
- An original basin worth saving
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Chips on the rim or front edge
What your quote should include
- Aftercare advice
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
FAQs for Dolwyd
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Frequently. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
