How we handle sink repair in Sandfields West

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Common call-outs are for chips on a built-in basin and crazing in the glaze, in ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and vanity unit basins.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sandfields West use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

What a repair cannot fix

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

10 questions to ask before you book

Sandfields West questions

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Sandfields West.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you come to Sandfields West?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Sandfields West. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

Do you cover the whole of Neath Port Talbot?

Across the UK, and that includes Sandfields West. Prices do not change with location.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Should you replace it?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Same prices wherever you are

Read our prices page.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a couple of hours for most chips for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
