Landlord and trade work in Cowden
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cowden as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a couple of hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
- We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
- We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
- The colour is matched by hand.
- The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Cowden
Will you remove the sink?
Not at all. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Are there extra charges for Cowden?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Repair or replace in Cowden?
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. A repair avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Store toiletries on a shelf
- Do not overtighten taps
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Treat the basin gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.
A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
What a repair cannot fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Vanity unit basins
