Why repair rather than replace?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why Rassau clients choose us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- No extra charge for your area
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Through cracks that let water out

Your questions about sink repair in Rassau
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Rassau?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you cover the whole of Blaenau Gwent?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Use gentle cleaners
- Repair chips before they stain
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
