Trusted sink repair in Tonna

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

How we handle sink repair in Tonna

If the entire basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. Typical jobs include a period basin that needs restoring and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, across enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Tonna and across Neath Port Talbot.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole basin

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Tonna questions

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Neath Port Talbot. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. You can typically use the basin later that day or the next.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Vanity unit basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

Should you replace it?

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Tonna. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
