Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Get chips repaired early
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Your questions about sink repair in Penybontfawr

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Shropshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you disconnect the taps?

Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.

When to call us in Penybontfawr

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Fine cracks across the glaze

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

10 questions to ask before booking

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean the basin and check the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. The basin can typically be used later that day or the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
