How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

You do not 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 reply with a fixed quote.

What else we do in Garth
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use mild cleaners only
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
What affects the price in Garth
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Garth, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- Work done at your home or business
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Garth: your questions answered
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you cover the whole of Gwynedd?
Everywhere in the UK, Garth included. Travel is included in the price.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you come to Garth?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Garth from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
