Landlords, agents and businesses in Kelty
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kelty as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Common questions in Kelty
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will you remove the sink?
No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Use a heat mat for hair tools
- Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge
- Use mild cleaners only
- Avoid abrasive pads
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and it may not match the rest of the suite. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
