Sink repair in Roughton, done in place
It’s not just the colour we match, it’s the gloss, because a dull patch on a shiny basin stands out. We polish each repair to the basin’s shine. We regularly repair antique & period basins, ceramic & vitreous china basins and Belfast and butler sinks, and the jobs we see most are a period basin that needs restoring and chips on the rim or front edge.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Norfolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
If you manage property in Roughton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
What affects the price in Roughton
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire basin
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
Most customers in Roughton get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, and the colour is mixed to suit.
Roughton: your questions answered
Can a chip in a sink be fixed?
Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Repair or replace in Roughton?

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Get chips repaired early
- Do not overtighten taps
Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
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.
When to call us in Roughton
Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- A chipped basin edge
- A crack near the taps
- Chips on a built-in basin
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Aftercare advice
- How the room is protected while they work
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- A basin that moves on its brackets
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
