How we handle sink repair in Fairlight Cove
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, basin damage is normally repaired in place. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. Whether it’s damage to a basin in a vanity unit and fine cracks across the glaze, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your TN35 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Repairs by material
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Fairlight Cove: your questions answered
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you work in Fairlight Cove?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Fairlight Cove and the rest of East Sussex. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How much does sink repair cost in Fairlight Cove?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Mention it when you ask for a quote.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Widespread crazing
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
