The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Why repair rather than replace?
A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Trenoweth clients choose us
- One visit for most repairs
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- No need to remove anything
- Colour mixed on the day to match

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For a price in Trenoweth, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Common questions in Trenoweth
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Trenoweth. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Trenoweth
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Trenoweth use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
