Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

Vitreous china is fired ceramic with a glassy glaze. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features and leave the character intact.

FAQs for Guthram Gowt

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, normally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Usually, if it isn’t leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Do you cover the whole of Lincolnshire?

The entire UK, including all of Lincolnshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

When can you do it?

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

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Are there extra charges for Guthram Gowt?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Use mild cleaners only

Go gently for the first few days, then stick to mild cleaners. Keep heavy bottles and hot hair tools off the rim.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price
