About our sink repair in Gorseinon
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. If you have damage to a basin in a vanity unit and a crazed, tired basin, we can usually put it right, on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins alike.
In a town like Gorseinon, most basins we repair are in family bathrooms and cloakrooms. Most damage is repaired where it is.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Gorseinon. The price comes down to:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Avoid abrasive pads
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gorseinon use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Swansea and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours. All we need in Gorseinon is access to the room and a parking space nearby. One visit is normally enough, with the sink repair finished the same day.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
