For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

For anyone letting property in or around Carnwadric, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

Common questions in Carnwadric

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. We shape and polish it to match the glaze.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you work in Carnwadric?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Carnwadric for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Carnwadric?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

When to call us in Carnwadric

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, so chips are common. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

The things clients generally mention when they call are:

  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A chipped basin edge

Before you book anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Carnwadric

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

If you’re in Carnwadric and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repairing versus replacing in Carnwadric

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Our sink repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Take a look at our pricing.

When a repair is not the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaks from the fittings
  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
