What your basin is made of matters
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
Most customers in Trostre get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Use gentle cleaners
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
