How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Geneu'r Glyn. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in Geneu'r Glyn, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repairing versus replacing in Geneu'r Glyn

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
