Related advice
Landlord and trade work in Low Tharston
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Norfolk and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What affects the price in Low Tharston
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole basin
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use gentle cleaners
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
- Keep straighteners away from the basin
A quick wipe after use helps, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.
A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If water is getting through, isolate the basin until it’s seen to.
