Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a couple of hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
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.
When to call us in Airdriehill
A basin sits at just the right height to be hit by everything, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Chips on the rim or front edge
- Cracks around the tap holes or waste
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
Questions to ask before booking
- How your room will be protected
- What preparation is included
- How long it needs to cure
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Avoid abrasive pads
- Repair chips before they stain
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Airdriehill. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs 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 quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
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 to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
