Sink repair in Pen-y-coedcae without replacing anything
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We work on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are chips on the rim or front edge and knocks from hair straighteners.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Common questions in Pen-y-coedcae
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Do you work in Pen-y-coedcae?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Pen-y-coedcae and the rest of Rhondda Cynon Taff. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Related advice
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Do not overtighten taps
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Get chips repaired early
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
