What affects the price in Glascoed

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Glascoed

For anyone letting property in or around Glascoed, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • A chipped vanity basin

Comparing quotes

  • Whether they match the colour on site

  • Who turns up on the day

Our hiring checklist

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Repair or replace in Glascoed?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Your questions about sink repair in Glascoed

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you quote from pictures?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you come to Glascoed?

We do. We send a technician to Glascoed for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
