Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Sink repair in Lawrenny, done in place

Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We are often asked to fix chips on the rim or front edge and cracks starting at the waste, in vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Your questions about sink repair in Lawrenny

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Lawrenny?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SA68 postcode.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use gentle cleaners

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 water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

The process

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can
