Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Through cracks that let water out
- A basin that moves on its brackets

Common questions in Pentre
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.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Do you cover the entire of Flintshire?
We cover the entire UK, including Pentre and the rest of Flintshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Repair or replace in Pentre?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
