Questions from Gowerton
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Swansea, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do you cover Gowerton?
We do. We send a technician to Gowerton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Gowerton. What changes the price is:
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- One picture of the entire basin
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SA4 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use gentle cleaners
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Repair or replace in Gowerton?
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- We leave the room as we found it

- Colour-matched on site

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
