For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Aberdeen and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

When to call us in Kinmundy

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • A crazed, tired basin
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
  • Chips on a built-in basin
  • An original basin worth saving

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • When it can be used again
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace in Kinmundy?

Replacing a basin frequently means a plumber, new taps and a new waste and making good the tiling. Repairing it keeps the basin you have. Our sink repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why Kinmundy customers choose us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One visit for most repairs
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Most basins are vitreous china with a hard, glossy glaze. The gloss is what makes a repair blend in, so we polish the repair to suit.

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Do not stand heavy bottles on the edge

Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

Common questions in Kinmundy

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can normally be repaired. A crack that leaks right through normally means a new basin.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes. The chip is filled, matched and polished.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What affects the price in Kinmundy

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

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

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

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 reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
