Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Common questions in Llanrhystud
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Ceredigion.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
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.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use mild cleaners only
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use gentle cleaners
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, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Repairs by material
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.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
How it works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: 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. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
