Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Are there extra charges for Ponthir?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

We work UK-wide, and that includes Ponthir. Prices do not change with location.

About our sink repair in Ponthir
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Whether it’s a crazed, tired basin and an original basin worth saving, we can help, on Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and vanity unit basins alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What affects the price in Ponthir
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Repair or replace in Ponthir?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why us?
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Work done at your home or business
- One price list for the whole UK

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Do you need sink repair in Ponthir?
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
Customers normally contact us about:
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Chips on a built-in basin
- A chipped basin edge
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
Questions to ask before booking
- Aftercare advice
- Who will actually do the work
- How the colour is matched
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
