About our sink repair in Graig Penllyn

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, matching the colour and gloss. Nothing is taken off the wall. If you’re dealing with an antique basin with chips and cracks around the tap holes or waste, we can help, on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Composite and resin

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

Repair or replace in Graig Penllyn?

Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

See our prices page.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Get chips repaired early

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A picture taken from further back

Most customers in Graig Penllyn get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Through cracks that let water out

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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