About our sink repair in Lower Sketty
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We work on enamelled basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on a built-in basin and cracks starting at the waste.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lower Sketty
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How the visit works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Related advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
FAQs for Lower Sketty
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Why repair rather than replace?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Through cracks that let water out
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Do not overtighten taps
- Use mild cleaners only
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
