Sink repair in Taigwynion, done in place
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We’re frequently asked to fix fine cracks across the glaze and knocks from hair straighteners, across ceramic & vitreous china basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Repair chips before they stain
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Repair or replace in Taigwynion?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why us?
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- One price list for the entire UK
- Colour mixed on the day to match
See our prices page.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What affects the price in Taigwynion
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

- A photo taken from further back
Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SY24 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
