What else we do in Kirton in Lindsey
Landlord and trade work in Kirton in Lindsey
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Don’t rest hot hair tools on the basin
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Do not rest hot hair tools or heavy bottles on the rim, so it does not get chipped again.
An unrepaired chip soon stains, so the sooner it’s repaired, the better.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
- Next we fill the damage and shape it to the basin’s profile.
- The finish is matched to the glaze.
- We polish it into the surrounding surface.
- The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the basin, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A crack that leaks right through the basin
- A basin that moves on its brackets
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Kirton in Lindsey questions
Can you repair a cracked basin?
Generally, if it is not leaking. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole basin and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Should you replace it?
Basins are frequently built into vanity units or tiled in, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. A repair avoids that. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
