St Mellons questions
Do you work in St Mellons?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to St Mellons from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, St Mellons included. Travel is included in the price.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
How much does sink repair cost in St Mellons?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Sink repair in St Mellons, done in place
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We regularly repair ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and antique & period basins, and people most frequently call us about damage to a basin in a vanity unit and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

When to call us in St Mellons
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- A crazed, tired basin
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Chips on the rim or front edge
Questions to ask before you book
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the price covers travel
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- When it can be used again
When we would advise against a repair
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in St Mellons
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Get chips repaired early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Why repair rather than replace?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
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 normally the cheaper route.
