Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Letting agents frequently 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.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  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 clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What affects the price in Chalvey

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings

A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin. Repairing it early keeps the job small.

When to call us in Chalvey

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • Chips around the rim

Comparing quotes

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
