Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in A' Chrìon Làraich use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

For anyone letting property in or around A' Chrìon Làraich, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including A' Chrìon Làraich. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material

The price 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 price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

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.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

When we’d advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A loose basin, until it’s refixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in A' Chrìon Làraich

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
