Penrhys: your questions answered
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Penrhys?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
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.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
When to call us in Penrhys
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Chips on a built-in basin
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Chips from dropped toiletries

How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
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.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the following day.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- 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 before booking.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
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.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Why repair rather than replace?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
