Can I fix it myself?

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

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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’re called out for in Glenowen

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • An antique basin with chips
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How your room will be protected
  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Glenowen

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Pembrokeshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What affects the price in Glenowen

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

Your questions about sink repair in Glenowen

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
