Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. They repair well, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair carefully around original features.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  3. Filler is built up and sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour and the gloss.
  5. We tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire basin, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not rest hot hair tools on the basin
  • Have new chips repaired quickly
  • Avoid strong bleach and descalers
  • Don’t overtighten taps

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy bottles or appliances into the basin.

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

Do you need sink repair in Rich's Holford?

Overtightened taps and wastes put stress on the ceramic, and cracks can start at the tap holes.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • An original basin worth saving
  • Fine cracks across the glaze
  • A chipped basin edge

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Rich's Holford

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Rich's Holford, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
