When to call us in Fowlis
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Fowlis questions
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
In many cases. Photos let us say whether it’s repairable.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Do not overtighten taps
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Widespread crazing
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- Through cracks that let water out
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What your basin is made of matters
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
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.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Fowlis. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Same prices wherever you are
