Sink repair in Wentlooge without replacing anything

From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. We regularly repair vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and chips around the rim.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Signs you need sink repair in Wentlooge

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.

Look out for these signs:

  • An original basin worth saving
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Cracks starting at the waste

10 questions to ask before booking

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Leaks from the fittings
  • Widespread crazing

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin

A quick wipe after use helps, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  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. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
