We work on enamelled basins, antique & period basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most frequently call us about chips from dropped toiletries and cracks around the tap holes or waste.

Your questions about sink repair in Y Felinheli
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes, very often. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Do you come to Y Felinheli?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Y Felinheli from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Are there extra charges for Y Felinheli?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- A basin that moves on its brackets
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlord and trade work in Y Felinheli
For anyone letting property in or around Y Felinheli, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
There is 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 come back to you with a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Do not overtighten taps
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
