Sink repair in Pontllanfraith, done in place
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is normally repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. If you’re dealing with cracks around the tap holes or waste and a chipped vanity basin, we can usually put it right, on antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Pontllanfraith. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole basin
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pontllanfraith as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Should you replace it?
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. 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.

When to call us in Pontllanfraith
Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Chips on a built-in basin
- A crack near the taps
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Crazing in the glaze
What to look for in a quote
- What prep work is covered
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- If travel is included in the price
- How changes to the job are handled
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Get chips repaired early
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Widespread crazing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair

- Antique & period basins
