What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaks from the fittings
- Through cracks that let water out
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Maesgeirchen
- Antique & period basins

- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Repair chips before they stain
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Questions from Maesgeirchen
Are there extra charges for Maesgeirchen?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
