  • A basin cracked through and leaking

About our sink repair in Trebetherick

It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, since a matt patch on a glossy basin is obvious. Repairs are polished to the same shine. We work on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and people most frequently call us about damage from dropped bottles or hair tools and crazing in the glaze.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

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

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

How we price sink repair

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Trebetherick, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Repair chips before they stain

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Your questions about sink repair in Trebetherick

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Do you disconnect the taps?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Do you work in Trebetherick?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Trebetherick and the rest of Cornwall. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can landlords book you?

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
