Sink & basin repair in Farncombe, Surrey
Sink repair in and around Farncombe: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- A chipped basin edge
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Repair chips before they stain
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. 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.
How we handle sink repair in Farncombe
If the entire basin is crazed or worn, it can be resurfaced in place, giving it an even new finish. We regularly repair Belfast and butler sinks, antique & period basins and vanity unit basins, and the jobs we see most are cracks starting at the waste and chips on a built-in basin.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Surrey.

DIY kit or professional 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Why repair rather than replace?
If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is generally the answer. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Different materials, different repairs
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
What a repair can’t fix
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

FAQs for Farncombe
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do you cover the whole of Surrey?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is a chipped basin repairable?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
