Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bingham as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
- Get chips repaired early
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
Use gentle cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Bingham questions
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you cover Bingham?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Bingham. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Leaks from the fittings
- A basin cracked through and leaking
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Antique & period basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Period and antique
Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair carefully around original features.
Vitreous china
Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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 pictures.
