Sink repair at your home in Llangennith

When a basin is worn or crazed all over, it can be resurfaced in place, for a fresh, even finish. We’re frequently asked to fix a crack near the taps and a crazed, tired basin, on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Widespread crazing

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Signs you need sink repair in Llangennith

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Chips around the rim
  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

Questions to ask before booking

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How to look after the finish
  • How the colour is matched
  • What prep work is covered

Choosing a repair company

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Landlord and trade work in Llangennith

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Common questions in Llangennith

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Often. Send us pictures and we will tell you.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Repair or replace in Llangennith?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
