How we handle sink repair in Troston
We match the glaze as well as the colour, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We’re frequently asked to fix an antique basin with chips and crazing in the glaze, across vanity unit basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

What sink repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Do you need sink repair in Troston?
Most chips come from something dropped into the bowl, and some happen during bathroom refits.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Cracks starting at the waste
- Chips from dropped toiletries
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Crazing in the glaze
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Troston, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
