Need sink repair in Pengam?

Should you replace it?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No need to remove anything
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Same prices wherever you are

Sink repair in Pengam without replacing anything

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, basin damage is usually repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We work on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and the jobs we see most are an antique basin with chips and damage to a basin in a vanity unit.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Pengam and across Caerphilly.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For a price in Pengam, photos 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.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Widespread crazing

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pengam as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A chipped basin edge
  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Chips on a built-in basin
