Sink repair at your home in Sontley
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. Our technicians work on antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are damage to a basin in a vanity unit and an original basin worth saving.

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use mild cleaners only
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Get chips repaired early
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
FAQs for Sontley
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
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.
Do you cover the whole of Wrexham?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Not at all. We protect the area around it and work in place.
How soon can you come?

Are there extra charges for Sontley?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What we cannot put right

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble 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, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Signs you need sink repair in Sontley
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Cracks starting at the waste
