Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Sink repair at your home in Pontrhydyfen
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, for a fresh, even finish. Whether it’s a crack near the taps and a crazed, tired basin, we can generally put it right, on Belfast and butler sinks, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What affects the price in Pontrhydyfen
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Pontrhydyfen. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Common questions in Pontrhydyfen
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Typically, if it isn’t leaking. A crack that leaks right through typically means a new basin.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Pontrhydyfen?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Repair or replace in Pontrhydyfen?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Pontrhydyfen. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a couple of hours for most chips. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
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.
