Choosing a repair company

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, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Vitreous china

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

Common questions in Llanfihangel Aberbythych

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

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

Are there extra charges for Llanfihangel Aberbythych?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Normally, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • What it’s made of, if you know

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No extra charge for your area

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Use mild cleaners only

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

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

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Llanfihangel Aberbythych, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  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 clear away and tell you when it can be used.

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
