Sink repair at your home in Merthyr Dyfan
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We work on ceramic & vitreous china basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most frequently call us about knocks from hair straighteners and an original basin worth saving.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Merthyr Dyfan. The price comes down to:
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole basin
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CF62 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Should you replace it?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Landlord and trade work in Merthyr Dyfan
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Questions from Merthyr Dyfan
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you work in Merthyr Dyfan?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Merthyr Dyfan for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- A chipped basin edge
- A chipped vanity basin
- Cracks starting at the waste

When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Plumbing leaks
- Through cracks that let water out
