Sink repair in Ruabon, done in place
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. If you are dealing with chips on the rim or front edge and an original basin worth saving, we can usually put it right, on vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins alike.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wrexham.

Common questions in Ruabon
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
Surface cracks can generally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
What we are called out for in Ruabon
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- A chipped basin edge
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
Before booking anyone
- How soon you can use it again
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
- How to care for the finish
What a repair cannot fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What affects the price in Ruabon
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy 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. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
