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 typically the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Sink repair in Llanedeyrn Village without replacing anything
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Common call-outs are for cracks around the tap holes or waste and a crazed, tired basin, in ceramic & vitreous china basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Signs you need sink repair in Llanedeyrn Village
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A chipped vanity basin
- Chips around the rim
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Crazing in the glaze
What to look for in a quote
- When it can be used again
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Aftercare advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Llanedeyrn Village
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Llanedeyrn Village use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
If you manage property in Llanedeyrn Village, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use gentle cleaners
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
What affects the price in Llanedeyrn Village
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Llanedeyrn Village. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
