Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How we price sink repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your LL28 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Common questions in Eglwysbach

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

In many cases. Send us photos and we’ll tell you.

Can you repair a chipped basin?

Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Do you work in Eglwysbach?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Eglwysbach for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What we are called out for in Eglwysbach

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

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • An original basin worth saving
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • Plumbing leaks

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Enamelled basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Vanity unit basins

Repairs by material

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
