For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Widespread crazing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in Gwrhay
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a couple of hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
