Sink repair in Y Ferwig, done in place
If the whole basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. We’re frequently asked to fix fine cracks across the glaze and damage from dropped bottles or hair tools, on antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Repairing versus replacing in Y Ferwig
Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. The price 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 you know the cost before booking.

What affects the price in Y Ferwig
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- One picture of the entire basin
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Can I fix it myself?
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
