Sink repair in Trematon without replacing anything
From hairline cracks by the taps to chips on the rim, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. Nothing is unplumbed or taken off the wall. We’re often asked to fix chips from dropped toiletries and a period basin that needs restoring, in Belfast and butler sinks, ceramic & vitreous china basins and antique & period basins.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How the visit works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
- We match the colour by hand.
- We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Get chips repaired early
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Use gentle cleaners
Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, to avoid new chips.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Other services in Trematon
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Repair or replace in Trematon?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Our sink repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why Trematon clients choose us
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Same prices wherever you are
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
See our prices page.
What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
