Sink repair near Llanddew

Keeping it looking good

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin

Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Common questions in Llanddew

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Do you work in Llanddew?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Llanddew from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you disconnect the taps?

Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do I need to be at home?

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

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
