What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Landlord and trade work in Spelter
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Spelter questions
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Bridgend. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Will you remove the sink?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Spelter?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your CF34 postcode.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- One visit for most repairs
