About our sink repair in Rhyd-y-foel
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins, and the jobs we see most are a crack near the taps and an original basin worth saving.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Conwy.

How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can typically be used later that day or the day after.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Related advice
Do you need sink repair in Rhyd-y-foel?
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Crazing in the glaze
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
What your quote should include
- Who turns up on the day
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- If travel is included in the price
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What affects the price in Rhyd-y-foel
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Rhyd-y-foel. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do you cover the entire of Conwy?
Everywhere in the UK, Rhyd-y-foel included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Store toiletries on a shelf
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Widespread crazing
- Leaks from the fittings
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
