Sink repair in Solva

Sink repair in Solva without replacing anything

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are cracks starting at the waste and a period basin that needs restoring.

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

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

FAQs for Solva

What does sink repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Why repair rather than replace?

Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Something in shot to show the size

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Widespread crazing
  • Plumbing leaks

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  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 tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
