Sink repair in Treswell, done in place

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. The chip is filled, shaped and polished to blend with the surrounding glaze. Typical jobs include cracks around the tap holes or waste and a period basin that needs restoring, across ceramic & vitreous china basins, Belfast and butler sinks and vanity unit basins.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Repair or replace in Treswell?

Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Treswell

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One price list for the whole UK

Take a look at our full price list.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

Landlord and trade work in Treswell

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Nottinghamshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Treswell: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

How to compare quotes

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Treswell. The price comes down to:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a couple of hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Make sure the area is dry

Ask for a price

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DN22 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
