Sink repair in Fairlands, 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. Common call-outs are for knocks from hair straighteners and a crazed, tired basin, on vanity unit basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and enamelled basins.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a couple of hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

FAQs for Fairlands
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Do you come to Fairlands?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Fairlands and the rest of Surrey. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

What else we do in Fairlands
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Through cracks that let water out
- Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
Repair or replace: which is better?
Finding the same basin again isn’t always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

- Colour-matched on site

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the entire basin
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your GU3 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
