FAQs for Pen-yr-heol
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the entire basin
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CF35 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Pen-yr-heol

When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use gentle cleaners
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
