DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What else we do in Tanyfron
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaks from the fittings
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use mild cleaners only
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Tanyfron, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
