Fowley Common questions
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you come to Fowley Common?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Fowley Common and the rest of Warrington. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do you cover the whole of Warrington?
Across the UK, and that includes Fowley Common. Prices do not change with location.
Why repair rather than replace?
Matching a discontinued basin can be impossible, particularly if it matches the toilet and bath. A repair keeps your suite matching. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- One picture of the whole basin
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Generally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Fowley Common, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Composite and resin
Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Leaks from the fittings
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Widespread crazing
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
