Sink repair in Llanspyddid, done in place
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We regularly repair enamelled basins, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and people most often call us about an antique basin with chips and cracks around the tap holes or waste.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- The type of damage
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Widespread crazing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins

- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use mild cleaners only
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

What else we do in Llanspyddid
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Llanspyddid as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Powys and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
Llanspyddid questions
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Frequently. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
