Sink & basin repair in Rhos, Powys
Sink repair in and around Rhos: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- An original basin worth saving
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
How we handle sink repair in Rhos
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. If you are dealing with fine cracks across the glaze and a chipped vanity basin, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

What affects the price in Rhos
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
If you are in Rhos and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Rhos questions
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can typically be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Do you cover the entire of Powys?
The entire UK, including all of Powys. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Advice
Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps or wastes and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Repairs by material
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.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
