Sink repair near Henllan

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Henllan as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Sink repair in Henllan, done in place

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We’re often asked to fix a crazed, tired basin and chips from dropped toiletries, in enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Plumbing leaks

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Our hiring checklist

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use gentle cleaners

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Early repair keeps it a small job.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
