Sink repair in Gledrid without replacing anything
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. Whether it’s damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and cracks around the tap holes or waste, we can normally put it right, on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Gledrid: your questions answered
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can typically be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Do you cover the entire of Wrexham?
All of Wrexham, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Plumbing leaks
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Gledrid. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
