About our sink repair in Trefeglwys
We match the glaze as well as the colour, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. Typical jobs include a period basin that needs restoring and knocks from hair straighteners, across Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Powys.

How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
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.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What affects the price in Trefeglwys
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole basin
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Advice
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Widespread crazing
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Trefeglwys as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
