How we handle sink repair in Fairview
Chipped, cracked and crazed basins and vanity units can be repaired, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. The basin stays on the wall. If you’re dealing with chips on a built-in basin and cracks around the tap holes or waste, we can help, on vanity unit basins, enamelled basins and antique & period basins alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What affects the price in Fairview
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Fairview. The price reflects:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Repair or replace in Fairview?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is generally best. Our sink repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Fairview
Do you work in Fairview?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Fairview for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
Surface cracks can normally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through usually means a new basin.
Are there extra charges for Fairview?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Fairview
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fairview use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- The damage is cleaned and prepared.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
