Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • One picture of the entire basin
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Polebrook questions

Do you cover Polebrook?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Polebrook and the rest of Northamptonshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a crack in a basin repairable?

Frequently. Send us photos and we will tell you.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Polebrook. Prices don’t change with location.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Polebrook.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Steer clear of harsh chemicals
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

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

A chip near the waste or taps can let water into the body of the basin, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Should you replace it?

A basin is typically fixed into a unit or tiled around, so replacing one disturbs more than you’d expect. A repair avoids that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

  • A period basin that needs restoring
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • A crack near the taps
  • Knocks from hair straighteners

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. The vanity, floor and taps are protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and prepared.
  3. We fill it and shape it to the basin’s curve.
  4. The colour is matched by hand.
  5. We polish it to match the shine and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
