For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Killingholme, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Killingholme questions

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of North East Lincolnshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. Repairs are polished to match that glaze.

Signs you need sink repair in Killingholme

Basins are right where bottles and hair tools get dropped, from glass bottles to hairdryers. Overtightened fittings can crack ceramic too.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • An antique basin with chips
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • A chipped vanity basin
  • Fine cracks across the glaze

Comparing quotes

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How to look after the finish

Our hiring checklist

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A basin cracked through and leaking
  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Killingholme

  • Enamelled basins
  • Belfast and butler sinks
  • Vanity unit basins
  • Antique & period basins
  • Ceramic & vitreous china basins

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Our sink repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why Killingholme customers choose us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

See our prices page.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
