Landlord and trade work in Clappersgate
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Crazing all over, which suits resurfacing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A basin that moves on its brackets
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Do not overtighten taps
- Repair chips before they stain
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
When to call us in Clappersgate
Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Knocks from hair straighteners
- Chips around the rim
- A crack near the taps
- Crazing in the glaze
