Your questions about sink repair in Roadwater
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What affects the price in Roadwater
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the entire basin
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Do not overtighten taps
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.
- We clean the basin and check the damage.
- The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Roadwater use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
If you manage property in Roadwater, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What else we do in Roadwater
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Widespread crazing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Enamelled basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Should you replace it?
Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

- One-year guarantee on every repair
