Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
About our sink repair in Llandaff
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. Our repair technicians work on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins, and people most frequently call us about knocks from hair straighteners and a chipped vanity basin.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

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 normally the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Questions from Llandaff
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Do you work in Llandaff?
We do. Technicians travel to Llandaff from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Landlord and trade work in Llandaff
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Llandaff use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Llandaff. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire basin
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed

The process
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a couple of hours for most chips. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
