Landlords, agents and businesses in Castle

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  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

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Use gentle cleaners

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

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

Repair or replace in Castle?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Castle. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Castle questions

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Are there extra charges for Castle?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How much does sink repair cost in Castle?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Signs you need sink repair in Castle

Fine crazing in the glaze is normally down to age, and strong chemicals speed it up.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • An antique basin with chips
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • Chips around the rim

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
  • Plumbing leaks
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
