Penllwyn questions
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Penllwyn included. Travel is included in the price.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Penllwyn?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you work in Penllwyn?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Penllwyn and the rest of Caerphilly. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Penllwyn. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
There is 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 reply with a fixed price.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
