For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Gotham, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Nottingham and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Avoid abrasive pads
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and take care with heavy bottles and hair tools.

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin and stain. Early repair keeps it a small job.

What affects the price in Gotham

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

Most customers in Gotham get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

Should you replace it?

If the basin is cracked right through and leaking, replacement is normally the answer. For chips, surface cracks and crazing, a repair is typically best. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Through cracks that let water out
  • A basin that moves on its brackets

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Questions from Gotham

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

Do you work in Gotham?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Gotham and the rest of Nottingham. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Gotham.

What your basin is made of matters

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
