  • Chips around the rim

Choosing a repair company

How we handle sink repair in Llangynwyd

Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. Common call-outs are for an original basin worth saving and chips on the rim or front edge, in vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Llangynwyd use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Composite and resin

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

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. 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.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Llangynwyd

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Your questions about sink repair in Llangynwyd

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What areas do you cover?

All of Bridgend, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
