Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Abbeydale Industrial Hamlet use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Letting agents frequently send us photos 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.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A basin that moves on its brackets
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Abbeydale Industrial Hamlet

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

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Get chips repaired early

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it doesn’t get chipped again.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
