How to look after the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Use mild cleaners only

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is usually the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is usually best. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A fixed quote before booking

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

What affects the price in Penyrheol

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Penyrheol

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Torfaen and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Penyrheol: your questions answered

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Penyrheol and the rest of Torfaen. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
