Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chorley use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Do you need sink repair in Chorley?
Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- An original basin worth saving
- Crazing in the glaze
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
- Chips on a built-in basin
If you manage a building such as Duke Street Primary School, we repair toilets and washrooms as well as work in homes.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Have new chips repaired quickly
Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.
Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Around Chorley, a new basin rarely matches what’s around it, whereas repairing keeps the room matching.
