About our sink repair in Gaerwen

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Gaerwen and across Isle of Anglesey.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Your questions about sink repair in Gaerwen
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you cover the whole of Isle of Anglesey?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Gaerwen. Prices don’t change with location.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Usually, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you come to Gaerwen?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Gaerwen from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Signs you need sink repair in Gaerwen
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- An antique basin with chips
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- A crazed, tired basin
What your quote should include
- How the room is protected while they work
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
- What aftercare is recommended
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
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 over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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 generally the cheaper route.
