We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Farcet. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Avoid abrasive pads
Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Questions from Farcet
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. We protect the area around it and work in place.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is a crack in a basin repairable?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

What sink repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
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.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Farcet
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
What a repair cannot fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Plumbing leaks
- Widespread crazing
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
