Sink repair in Llan Ffestiniog, done in place
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We are often asked to fix chips around the rim and chips from dropped toiletries, on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaks from the fittings
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What else we do in Llan Ffestiniog
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Common problems we fix in Llan Ffestiniog
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Crazing in the glaze
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- An antique basin with chips
- Chips around the rim

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Should you replace it?
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
