For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ty Coch use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
What affects the price in Ty Coch
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
FAQs for Ty Coch
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you come to Ty Coch?
We do. We send a technician to Ty Coch for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you disconnect the taps?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Do you cover the whole of Torfaen?
Everywhere in the UK, Ty Coch included. Travel is included in the price.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can normally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What your basin is made of matters
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.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

When to call us in Ty Coch
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- An antique basin with chips
Questions to ask before you book
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How the colour is matched
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
