Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Newton Poppleford, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, and the colour is mixed to suit.

Period and antique

Older basins may have crazing, chips and makers’ marks. We repair them sympathetically.

Do you need sink repair in Newton Poppleford?

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

Look out for these signs:

  • Knocks from hair straighteners
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • A chipped basin edge
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit

What to look for in a quote

Choosing a repair company

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. The area is degreased and keyed.
  3. We build up the filler and sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know about parking or access

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Newton Poppleford. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Get chips repaired early
  • Do not overtighten taps
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim

Go gently for the first few days, then clean it with mild products. Keep heavy bottles and hot tools away from the rim.

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Glaze crazing across the whole basin, where resurfacing is better
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)
  • A crack that leaks right through the basin

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
