How to compare quotes

Sink repair in Tregeseal without replacing anything

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. Typical jobs include a crack near the taps and a chipped basin edge, on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and ceramic & vitreous china basins.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Tregeseal. What changes the price is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Common questions in Tregeseal

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

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

Do you work in Tregeseal?

We do. We send a technician to Tregeseal for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you repair an antique basin?

Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Different materials, different repairs

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.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Leaks from the fittings

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish it into the surrounding surface.
  5. The basin can normally be used later that day or the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
