Common questions in Llansanwyr
Can pets and children be at home?
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.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Llansanwyr is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
Sink repair in Llansanwyr, done in place
If the entire basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We work on enamelled basins, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most often call us about cracks starting at the waste and a chipped vanity basin.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
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.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Llansanwyr. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
