Sink repair for Rhosddu homes

About our sink repair in Rhosddu

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We work on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are crazing in the glaze and chips around the rim.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Common problems we fix in Rhosddu

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • A chipped basin edge

Before you book anyone

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who will actually do the work
  • When it can be used again
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Plumbing leaks

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Enamelled basins

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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 photos.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. Usually the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

FAQs for Rhosddu

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Surface cracks can typically be repaired. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Get chips repaired early

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
