Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, along with damage during fitting.

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Repair chips before they stain
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Ynysawdre questions
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, very frequently. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole basin, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
