Sink repair in Felindre

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Sink repair in Felindre, done in place

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Whether it’s fine cracks across the glaze and knocks from hair straighteners, we can usually put it right.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Your questions about sink repair in Felindre

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Often. Send us pictures and we will tell you.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

What affects the price in Felindre

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole basin

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

When a repair is not the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Plumbing leaks

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

What we work on

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

Do you need sink repair in Felindre?

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A crack near the taps
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Chips on a built-in basin

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How your room will be protected
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
