Sink repair in Pen-Rhiw-fawr without replacing anything
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Our repair technicians work on antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are chips around the rim and an original basin worth saving.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
When we would advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
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.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Your questions about sink repair in Pen-Rhiw-fawr
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Usually, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Pen-Rhiw-fawr is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Repair or replace in Pen-Rhiw-fawr?
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
