For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How we handle sink repair in Golcar
Antique and period basins are worth repairing, and we repair around makers’ marks where we can. Replacing them with something similar can be difficult. We regularly repair antique & period basins, vanity unit basins and enamelled basins, and common reasons people get in touch are chips around the rim and knocks from hair straighteners.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use gentle cleaners
- Use mild cleaners only
- Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
Don’t rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, to avoid new chips.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Different materials, different repairs
Period and antique
Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Golcar questions
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Golcar and the rest of Kirklees. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you repair a chipped basin?
Yes. We fill the chip, colour-match it and polish it to the basin’s gloss.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Repair or replace in Golcar?
A new basin frequently means a plumber, new taps or wastes and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
