Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Higher Row use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Common questions in Higher Row
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Can you repair an antique basin?
Yes. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Do you cover Higher Row?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Higher Row from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Higher Row included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Do not overtighten taps
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Do not rest hot hair tools on 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, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Higher Row. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
Most clients in Higher Row get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- We degrease and key the damage.
- Filler is built up and sanded flush.
- We match the colour and the gloss.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
