How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Sink repair in Penegoes without replacing anything

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Our technicians work on antique & period basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins, and common reasons people get in touch are cracks starting at the waste and chips on the rim or front edge.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Powys.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Widespread crazing

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Antique & period basins
  • Enamelled basins

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Penegoes, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Penegoes questions

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will you remove the sink?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Penegoes. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For a price in Penegoes, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
