Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Longridge
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Longridge. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole basin, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Questions from Longridge
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you restore period basins?
Yes. We repair them without hiding their character.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do you cover the whole of Gloucestershire?
We work UK-wide, so Longridge is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you need to take the basin off the wall?
No. The repair is done in place, with the taps left connected.
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.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What we are called out for in Longridge
Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, which can crack it around the holes.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A period basin that needs restoring
- Cracks starting at the waste
- A chipped vanity basin
- Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Widespread crazing
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Antique & period basins
- Vanity unit basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
Should you replace it?
A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Our sink repair starts 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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Same prices wherever you are
- One visit for most repairs
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
