Troedrhiw-gwair questions
Are there extra charges for Troedrhiw-gwair?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.

What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- The basin can normally be used later that day or the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Make sure the area is dry

What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Plumbing leaks

- Through cracks that let water out
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t 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 photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
