Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Graig Trewyddfa: your questions answered

Are there extra charges for Graig Trewyddfa?

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

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Typically, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
