Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

The process

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 usually the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Llanbadarn Fawr questions

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Usually, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

How much does sink repair cost in Llanbadarn Fawr?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you work in Llanbadarn Fawr?

We do. Technicians travel to Llanbadarn Fawr from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Llanbadarn Fawr

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Powys and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

What we are called out for in Llanbadarn Fawr

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.

Look out for these signs:

  • An antique basin with chips
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
