When to call us in Pen-y-groes
Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- A period basin that needs restoring
- A chipped vanity basin
- Crazing in the glaze
Questions to ask before booking
- What aftercare is recommended
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether they match the colour on site
- When it can be used again
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- One picture of the entire basin
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Repair chips before they stain
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
