Questions from Maerdy
How do I get a price for sink repair in Maerdy?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
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.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully 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.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid abrasive pads
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
When to call us in Maerdy
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.
Common reasons people in Maerdy contact us include:
- A crazed, tired basin
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Chips on the rim or front edge
