Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Pen-y-bryn, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • Widespread crazing
  • Through cracks that let water out

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Pen-y-bryn questions

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you come to Pen-y-bryn?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Pen-y-bryn and the rest of Bridgend. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Pen-y-bryn.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you need sink repair in Pen-y-bryn?

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Chips on the rim or front edge
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • An original basin worth saving

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How to look after the finish

How to compare quotes

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Use mild cleaners only

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Why repair rather than replace?

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. Our sink repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
