For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

What affects the price in Newton

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Newton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the whole basin
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. It’s filled and shaped to the basin.
  4. We match the colour by hand.
  5. The repair is polished to the basin’s gloss and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

Most customers in Newton get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Keep heavy bottles off the rim
  • Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals

Treat the basin 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.

Newton: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Newton.

How much does sink repair cost in Newton?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Do you cover the entire of West Lothian?

Across the UK, and that includes Newton. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Will you remove the sink?

No. The repair is done in place, without disconnecting anything.

Do you cover Newton?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Newton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
  • Plumbing leaks
  • A basin coming away from the wall (that needs refixing)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

What we are called out for in Newton

Glaze crazing comes with age and temperature changes, and strong chemicals speed it up.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • Cracks starting at the waste
  • Chips from dropped toiletries
  • A chipped vanity basin

What to look for in a quote

  • What preparation is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long it needs to cure
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

Finding the same basin again is not always possible, especially in a matching suite. Repairing it keeps the suite together. 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 jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
