How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
Questions from Pontypool
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Are there extra charges for Pontypool?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you cover the whole of Torfaen?
The whole UK, including all of Torfaen. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Pontypool
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Should you replace it?
Swapping a basin often brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. A repair avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Pontypool. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
