Landlord and trade work in Strontian

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

A chipped basin is one of the most noticeable bits of damage in a bathroom. We fill, shape and polish the damage to blend with the surrounding glaze.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
  2. We degrease and key the damage.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Repairs by material

Vitreous china

Ceramic basins have a fired, glassy surface. We polish repairs to match the glaze.

Period and antique

Period basins frequently have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically.

Common questions in Strontian

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How do I get a price for sink repair in Strontian?

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

Do you restore period basins?

Yes, carefully. We repair them without hiding their character.

Do you come to Strontian?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Strontian from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Repair or replace in Strontian?

A basin is normally fixed into a unit or tiled around, so changing one disturbs the surroundings. Repairing it keeps everything as it is. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Use gentle cleaners
  • Repair chips before they stain
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened

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 the sooner it’s repaired, the better.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What sink repair costs

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole basin
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it

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

Do you need sink repair in Strontian?

Bathroom basins get knocked all the time: bottles, hair straighteners and razors chip the rim and front edge. Cracks tend to start near the tap holes and waste.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips on a built-in basin

  • Damage from dropped bottles or hair tools
  • Cracks around the tap holes or waste
