Work for landlords and builders

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.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Your questions about sink repair in Lyatts

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Lyatts?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

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

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Lyatts is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

Through cracks that let water out
Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
Leaks from the fittings

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
We colour-match the finish to the glaze.
The repair is polished so it blends in.
Normally the basin is back in use the same day or the next.

Getting ready for the visit

Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

Keeping it looking good

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

Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Repair chips before they stain
Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
Use a heat mat for hair tools

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

An unrepaired chip soon stains, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new basin can mean a plumber, new taps and a new waste and repairs to the tiles or vanity unit. A repair keeps the basin you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 photos, so you know the cost before you book.
