About our sink repair in Sarn Bach

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Typical jobs include chips from dropped toiletries and chips around the rim, on Belfast and butler sinks, vanity unit basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Sarn Bach and across Gwynedd.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sarn Bach

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sarn Bach use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repair or replace in Sarn Bach?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. A repair keeps your suite matching. Our sink repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Sarn Bach. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Take a look at our prices page.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

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

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

What we work on

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

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Sarn Bach questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

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 before the end of a tenancy.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Gwynedd.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It generally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
