Sink Repair for Penygarn homes
Chip, crack and resurfacing work on bathroom sinks and basins in Penygarn, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Cracks starting at the waste
- A chipped vanity basin
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Sink repair in Penygarn without replacing anything
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is usually repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We’re frequently asked to fix damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and chips on a built-in basin, in vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Penygarn. The price reflects:
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole basin
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
Questions from Penygarn
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaks from the fittings
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it doesn’t get chipped again.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
