Sink repair in Pen-y-foel without replacing anything
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we work around makers’ marks wherever possible. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Typical jobs include a crazed, tired basin and chips from dropped toiletries, in vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and enamelled basins.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Different materials, different repairs

Repairing versus replacing in Pen-y-foel
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What a repair can’t fix

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Pen-y-foel. The price reflects:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Repair chips before they stain
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
