Sink repair in Tregaron

Landlord and trade work in Tregaron

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Sink repair in Tregaron, done in place

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are knocks from hair straighteners and a crack near the taps.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Tregaron: your questions answered

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Ceredigion.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

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.

Can you repair a cracked basin?

Surface cracks can normally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Tregaron. The price reflects:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Tregaron. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire basin
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a price is easy: 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 are under no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Different materials, different repairs

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Common problems we fix in Tregaron

Dropped glass bottles and heavy toiletries are the usual cause of chips, and some happen during bathroom refits.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • An original basin worth saving

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • Aftercare advice
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a couple of hours for most chips from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is typically the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
