Sink repair in Glan-y-nant without replacing anything

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Our technicians work on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and people most frequently call us about an original basin worth saving and chips from dropped toiletries.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Repairing versus replacing in Glan-y-nant

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Glan-y-nant. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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 normally the cheaper route.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
