Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.

Your questions about sink repair in Llandeilo

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Are there extra charges for Llandeilo?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Often. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Advice

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Antique & period basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Vanity unit basins

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Avoid abrasive pads

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
