Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Sink repair in Glan-rhyd, done in place
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. Typical jobs include damage to a basin in a vanity unit and cracks around the tap holes or waste, across Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
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.
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Repair chips before they stain
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Your questions about sink repair in Glan-rhyd
Can you repair a chipped basin?

Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Often. Send us photos and we will tell you.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can landlords book you?

Is there a guarantee?

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Glan-rhyd. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Glan-rhyd. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For a price in Glan-rhyd, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Should you replace it?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
