Do you need sink repair in Tre-Gibbon?
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Fittings that are overtightened can also crack the ceramic.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- A crazed, tired basin
- Chips from dropped toiletries
Before booking anyone
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long it needs to cure
- How the colour is matched
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Sink repair in Tre-Gibbon, 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. Common call-outs are for a chipped basin edge and a chipped vanity basin, in antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and enamelled basins.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Tre-Gibbon as everywhere else we work.

Tre-Gibbon questions
Will you remove the sink?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you cover the entire of Rhondda Cynon Taff?
All of Rhondda Cynon Taff, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Rhondda Cynon Taff.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tre-Gibbon as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

The process
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a couple of hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Advice
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Leaks from the fittings
- Through cracks that let water out
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CF44 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
