For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gate Burton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Get chips repaired early
- Steer clear of harsh chemicals
- Use gentle cleaners
- Don’t overtighten taps
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
Gate Burton: your questions answered
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can a cracked sink be fixed?
In many cases. Send us photos and we will tell you.
What areas do you cover?
All of Lincolnshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.
How we price sink repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Repairing versus replacing in Gate Burton
A basin is usually fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
