Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Common problems we fix in Ynysboeth

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors catch the front edge and rim. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Chips around the rim
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace in Ynysboeth?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • No need to remove anything

Landlord and trade work in Ynysboeth

For anyone letting property in or around Ynysboeth, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Common questions in Ynysboeth

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Frequently. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Ynysboeth.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What areas do you cover?

All of Rhondda Cynon Taff, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Related advice

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A basin cracked through and leaking

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Ynysboeth

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Antique & period basins

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
