Sink repair at your home in Llanvetherine

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is generally repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Whether it’s damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and a chipped basin edge, we can normally put it right.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Llanvetherine as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

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

Llanvetherine questions

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Will you remove the sink?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What information do you need?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

What we’re called out for in Llanvetherine

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

Look out for any of the following:

  • A chipped vanity basin
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Chips around the rim
  • An original basin worth saving

What to look for in a quote

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How to look after the finish

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
