Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.

What affects the price in Maesycwmmer
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
