Landlord and trade work in Acton Turville

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Get chips repaired early

Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.

A crack near the taps can spread, so get it looked at early. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

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

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we polish the repair to suit.

Common questions in Acton Turville

Can you quote from photos?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Do you come to Acton Turville?

We do. We send a technician to Acton Turville for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. You can usually use the basin later that day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a basin frequently brings new taps, a new waste and tiling work, and it may not match the rest of the suite. A repair avoids all of that. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No need to remove anything
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
