Roade questions

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can normally be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Sink repair in Roade without replacing anything

A chip on a basin is hard to ignore. We fill, shape and polish the damage so it blends into the glaze. We regularly repair antique & period basins, Belfast and butler sinks and ceramic & vitreous china basins, and common reasons people contact us are a chipped vanity basin and chips around the rim.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northamptonshire.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Why repair rather than replace?

A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Roade. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin

If you’re in Roade and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Widespread crazing
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Enamelled basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

When to call us in Roade

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: heavy bottles, hairdryers and straighteners catch the front edge and rim. Cracks often start around the taps and waste.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • An antique basin with chips
  • A chipped basin edge
  • Chips from dropped toiletries

Comparing quotes

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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.
