Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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 frequently lifts.
How we handle sink repair in Pen-yr-Heol
From cloakroom basins to period pieces, whatever they’re made of. Taps and wastes stay connected. Our technicians work on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the rim or front edge and cracks starting at the waste.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Common questions in Pen-yr-Heol
How much does sink repair cost in Pen-yr-Heol?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a couple of hours for most chips. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we are called out for in Pen-yr-Heol
Fine crazing in the glaze is usually down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:

When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Through cracks that let water out
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
What your basin is made of matters
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Any details about the material
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repair or replace: which is better?

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Pen-yr-Heol. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
