Landlords, agents and businesses in Luxulyan

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Luxulyan use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What affects the price in Luxulyan

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire basin
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Luxulyan, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Questions from Luxulyan

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Can a chip in a sink be fixed?

Yes, very often. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. We repair it where it is, with the taps left connected.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you keep the maker’s mark?

Yes, carefully. Period basins are worth keeping, and we repair them sympathetically.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Store toiletries on a shelf

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

A crack near the taps can spread, so it’s worth having it checked quickly. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

Signs you need sink repair in Luxulyan

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, which can crack it around the holes.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Chips around the rim
  • An antique basin with chips

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How to look after the finish

How to compare quotes

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Widespread crazing
  • Plumbing leaks
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Should you replace it?

A basin cracked through and leaking needs replacing. For chips and surface damage, repair is the better route. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Different materials, different repairs

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.
