Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Groes. What changes the price is:

  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For a price in Groes, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

Common questions in Groes

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Denbighshire.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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