Landlord and trade work in Godmanchester
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A loose basin, until it’s refixed
- Through cracks that let water out
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Godmanchester
- Enamelled basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Vitreous china
Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.
Composite and resin
Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 typically the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

- A photo taken from further back

- Any earlier repairs or coatings

- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
