DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

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.

Do you need sink repair in Llanedi?

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Chips from dropped toiletries

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the area is dry

Llanedi questions

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Will you remove the sink?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you repair an antique basin?

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

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
