10 questions to ask before booking

Landlords, agents and businesses in Eòlaigearraidh

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. 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 so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What sink repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Eòlaigearraidh. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a basin often means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin

Use gentle cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
