Landlord and trade work in Aird

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What a repair can’t fix

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Widespread crazing
  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. A repair leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Choosing a repair company

Aird questions

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you work in Aird?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Aird and the rest of Na h-Eileanan Siar. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
