When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Through cracks that let water out
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What affects the price in Waunfawr
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole basin
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
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. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have a window or extractor fan available

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
