Llandre: your questions answered
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Get chips repaired early
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Llandre
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire basin, we can price the job without visiting.
