Our hiring checklist

Sink repair in Pentrechwyth without replacing anything

If the entire basin is crazed or worn, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. We work on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are an original basin worth saving and chips on a built-in basin.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Should you replace it?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Questions from Pentrechwyth

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Swansea.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Widespread crazing

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Pentrechwyth

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What affects the price in Pentrechwyth

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
