What affects the price in Penyrheol

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Penyrheol. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole basin

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

Penyrheol questions

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you cover the entire of Swansea?

Everywhere in the UK, Penyrheol included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, 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.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Will you remove the sink?

No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What does sink repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Plumbing leaks

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

What we work on

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Penyrheol, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
