How we handle sink repair in Edern
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. If you’re dealing with an antique basin with chips and a crack near the taps, we can help, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
What affects the price in Edern
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your LL53 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on

- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Repairing versus replacing in Edern
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Questions from Edern
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
When to call us in Edern
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
Look out for these signs:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Crazing in the glaze
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
What to look for in a quote
- How the room is protected while they work
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- If travel is included in the price
