Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What affects the price in Llanbradach

Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
FAQs for Llanbradach
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What areas do you cover?

Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
