Landlords, agents and businesses in Myddfai

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

If you manage property in Myddfai, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Myddfai questions

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Use mild cleaners only

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One picture of the entire basin
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SA20 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Repair or replace in Myddfai?

Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • No need to remove anything
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No extra charge for your area

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Leaks from the fittings

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
