Questions from Burley in Wharfedale
My house in Burley in Wharfedale is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?
Often, yes: original pieces are typically worth keeping. Photos let us tell you what we would recommend.
Can you fix basins in a rental near Burley-In-Wharfedale station?

Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair an antique basin?

Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble 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’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 fails, we can still put it right.
