Sink repair near Graig

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Your questions about sink repair in Graig

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Do you work in Graig?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Graig and the rest of Newport. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

When to call us in Graig

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

What your quote should include

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What preparation is included

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Newport and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Graig as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Plumbing leaks

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Enamelled basins

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

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.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Repair or replace in Graig?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. The price 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.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No need to remove anything
  • Work done at your home or business

See our prices page.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Don’t overtighten taps

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

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
