Landlords, agents and businesses in Newbiggin-by-the-Sea
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Repairs by material
Period and antique
Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
Vitreous china
Ceramic basins have a hard, glassy glaze. Matching that shine is the key to a good repair, so we finish the repair to the same sheen.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Newbiggin-by-the-Sea: your questions answered
Will you remove the sink?
No, it stays where it is. The surrounding area is protected and we work in place.
What does sink repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you repair a cracked basin?
In many cases. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Use gentle cleaners
- Avoid strong bleach and descalers
- Don’t overtighten taps
- Store toiletries on a shelf
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
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.
