Landlords, agents and businesses in New York

For anyone letting property in or around New York, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in New York use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Vitreous china

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

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the area around the basin.
  2. We clean and prepare the chip or crack.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Common questions in New York

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do you restore period basins?

Yes. Where possible, we work around makers’ marks. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

How much does sink repair cost in New York?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LN4 postcode.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What affects the price in New York

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • One picture of the entire basin
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin
  • Plumbing leaks

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

What we work on

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

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the edge
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin

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.

When to call us in New York

Fittings tightened too hard strain the basin, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

Common reasons people in New York contact us are:

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Chips around the rim
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste

What to look for in a quote

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What preparation is included
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What protection goes down before work starts
