Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What affects the price in Pentre-poeth
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Pentre-poeth. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Details of any past repairs
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Common questions in Pentre-poeth
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.
What does sink repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SA15 postcode.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Usually, if it is not leaking. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Are there extra charges for Pentre-poeth?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
