DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
FAQs for Tonmawr
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Tonmawr. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you come to Tonmawr?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Tonmawr. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Related advice
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Through cracks that let water out
- Widespread crazing
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What else we do in Tonmawr
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
