Questions from Roxby
My house in Roxby is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?
Frequently, yes: original pieces are typically worth keeping. Photos let us tell you what we’d recommend.
Do you cover villages like Roxby?
Of course; we work in small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and parking when you book.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Can you keep the maker’s mark?
Yes. We repair around makers’ marks where we can. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole basin and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
About our sink repair in Roxby
Whether it’s a chipped rim or a crack by the tap holes, most basin damage can be repaired without removing anything. The taps stay connected and the basin stays on the wall. If you’re dealing with chips around the rim and crazing in the glaze, we can help.
Somewhere like Roxby, you may still have period sanitaryware, and those are worth keeping. We repair around makers’ marks where we can.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring all our kit in the van, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a couple of hours for most chips, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work. Somewhere like Roxby needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring everything needed for the sink repair, so there’s no second trip.
- We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
- We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
- We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
- The basin can generally be used later that day or the day after.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

When we’d advise against a repair

- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Plumbing leaks
- A basin cracked through and leaking
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

How we price sink repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole basin
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Roxby
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Roxby use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Local notes for Roxby
In the older streets of Roxby, around landmarks like Church of St Mary, it may still have original basins or a period toilet, which are worth repairing rather than replacing. If you manage a building such as AALPS College, we repair toilets and washrooms as well as work in homes. Rented homes near Scunthorpe station (about 4.2 miles south-west) change hands frequently, and repairing basins between tenants is quicker than replacing them.
Roxby is about 5 miles north of Scunthorpe, in North Lincolnshire. Jobs in Roxby are booked in like any other job: a fixed quote from photos, and a technician at your door on the day. We work in 90 places across North Lincolnshire, from the larger towns to small villages. Our nearest city page is Leeds, about 40 miles away.
Jobs in DN15 are booked in the same way as anywhere else. If your basin is in a house or flat on East Street, Old Barn Lane and Old Hall Lane or anywhere close by, a technician can come to you. If you’re just outside Roxby, we cover Winterton (1 mile north), High Risby (1 mile south), Thealby (2 miles west), Dragonby (2 miles south-west) and Normanby (2 miles west). Within a short drive, we also cover Scunthorpe (5 miles south), Barton-upon-Humber (7 miles north-east), Bottesford (7 miles south-west), Brigg (8 miles south-east), Frodingham (4 miles south-west) and Crosby (4 miles south-west).
Around Roxby
We visit homes around The Cross Keys pub, Winterton Junior School and Winterton Community Academy and the streets around them. The nearest railway station is Scunthorpe station, roughly 4.2 miles south-west of the centre. Well-known places in the area include Scunthorpe General Hospital (4.5 miles south-west).
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically 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, with colour mixed on site.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
- Have new chips repaired quickly
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.
Repairing versus replacing in Roxby
Basins are often built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Replacement in Roxby means trades, travel and waste removal, while a repair is a single visit.
Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, 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.
Why book with us
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Fixed prices from your photos

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
