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.

What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
When to call us in Pont-rhyd-yr-ynn
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.
People usually call us after spotting one of these:
- An antique basin with chips
- Crazing in the glaze
- Chips around the rim
- Knocks from hair straighteners

Questions from Pont-rhyd-yr-ynn
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Torfaen. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Get chips repaired early
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
