How the visit works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Why repair rather than replace?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Work done at your home or business

Your questions about sink repair in Rhoswiel

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the whole basin
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SY10 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Signs you need sink repair in Rhoswiel

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • A chipped basin edge
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

Comparing quotes

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How soon you can use it again
  • If travel is included in the price

10 questions to ask before you book

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Shropshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Use mild cleaners only

Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
