Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Repair chips before they stain
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Trelake: your questions answered
How much does sink repair cost in Trelake?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, very frequently. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Are there extra charges for Trelake?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Should you replace it?
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
If you’re in Trelake and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What a repair can’t fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Leaks from the fittings
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
