Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.
Horwich questions
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new sink or door may mean disturbing the worktop and plumbing, or finding a matching door that’s been discontinued. Repairing it leaves everything in place. Our kitchen sink repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
