What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Landlord and trade work in Glyncaled
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Get chips repaired early
- 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 the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Glyncaled. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

- No extra charge for your area
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What your basin is made of matters
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.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Common questions in Glyncaled
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Often. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do you work in Glyncaled?
We do. Technicians travel to Glyncaled from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
