Your questions about sink repair in Nefyn
Can you quote from pictures?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Do you come to Nefyn?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Nefyn for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Sink repair at your home in Nefyn
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We work on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins, and people most often call us about a crack near the taps and chips on a built-in basin.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Nefyn and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

The process
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Get chips repaired early
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Repairing versus replacing in Nefyn
A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Nefyn. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
