About our sink repair in Trenale
When a basin is worn or crazed all over, we can resurface it in place, giving it an even new finish. Common call-outs are for a chipped basin edge and cracks around the tap holes or waste, across antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and Belfast and butler sinks.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin that moves on its brackets
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Enamelled basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Get chips repaired early
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Trenale questions
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do you need sink repair in Trenale?
Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks frequently start around the taps and waste.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Chips around the rim
- Fine cracks across the glaze
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- An antique basin with chips
Before you book anyone
- How long it needs to cure
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Landlord and trade work in Trenale
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Trenale as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
For anyone letting property in or around Trenale, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
