Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and a period basin that needs restoring, in vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Tŷ-nant and across Rhondda Cynon Taff.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed price.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What we are called out for in Tŷ-nant
Basins take knocks every day: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- Crazing in the glaze
- A chipped vanity basin
- Chips around the rim
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What happens if they find more damage
- How long it needs to cure
Tŷ-nant: your questions answered
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Are there extra charges for Tŷ-nant?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How do I get a price for sink repair in Tŷ-nant?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CF38 postcode.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a couple of hours for most chips in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
