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.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Sink repair at your home in Newton
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Our repair technicians work on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are a crazed, tired basin and chips on a built-in basin.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Newton and across Swansea.

FAQs for Newton
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How much does sink repair cost in Newton?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Newton.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Repairing versus replacing in Newton
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How the visit works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the area is dry

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Don’t overtighten taps
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
