What your basin is made of matters
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.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
About our sink repair in Perthcelyn
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. A like-for-like replacement can be hard to find. Whether it’s fine cracks across the glaze and chips on a built-in basin, we can help.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

FAQs for Perthcelyn
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Rhondda Cynon Taff, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Are there extra charges for Perthcelyn?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Rhondda Cynon Taff and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Widespread crazing
- Plumbing leaks
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Perthcelyn
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins

How it works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use gentle cleaners
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Clean with mild, non-abrasive 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.
Repair or replace in Perthcelyn?

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
