DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
Most customers in Llanaelhaearn get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Your questions about sink repair in Llanaelhaearn
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Will you remove the sink?
Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Llanaelhaearn?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your LL54 postcode.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Gwynedd and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
