Sink repair at your home in Ynysforgan
A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. Our technicians work on enamelled basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins, and the jobs we see most are a period basin that needs restoring and a chipped vanity basin.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Common problems we fix in Ynysforgan
Fine crazing in the glaze is usually down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A crack near the taps
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- An antique basin with chips
- A crazed, tired basin
What your quote should include
- Whether the price covers travel
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What protection goes down before work starts
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use mild cleaners only
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid abrasive pads
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure 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.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Should you replace it?
A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is normally best. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
