Llangattock: your questions answered

Do you come to Llangattock?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Llangattock for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Llangattock and the rest of Powys. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A basin is generally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We leave the room as we found it

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Get chips repaired early

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

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.

Common problems we fix in Llangattock

Fine crazing in the glaze is generally down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • A crack near the taps
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Chips around the rim
  • Chips on a built-in basin

Before booking anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What prep work is covered
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Llangattock. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash

Most clients in Llangattock get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
