Sink repair in Fareham Common without replacing anything
A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. The chip is filled, shaped and polished so it blends into the glaze. We work on vanity unit basins, antique & period basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and people most often call us about cracks starting at the waste and crazing in the glaze.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks

- Vanity unit basins
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
What we are called out for in Fareham Common
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Crazing in the glaze
- An antique basin with chips
- A chipped vanity basin
- Knocks from hair straighteners
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How your room will be protected
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Get chips repaired early
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Use mild cleaners only
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
How the visit works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a couple of hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We protect the area around the basin.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- We match the colour by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Common questions in Fareham Common
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Fareham Common and the rest of Hampshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.
Do you disconnect the taps?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
