Repair or replace in Llanwnnen?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Llanwnnen. What changes the price is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
Most clients in Llanwnnen get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Llanwnnen as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Ceredigion and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Common problems we fix in Llanwnnen
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Crazing in the glaze
- An antique basin with chips
- Chips around the rim
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste

When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
