Landlords, agents and businesses in The Common

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How it works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

First, we check the basin is firm and dry.
We degrease and key the damage.
Filler is built up and sanded flush.
Colour and gloss are matched.
We clear away and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Clear the area around the damage
Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in The Common, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What your basin is made of matters

Period and antique

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

Composite and resin

Many vanity units have resin or composite basins. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Questions from The Common

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in The Common.

Do you need to take the basin off the wall?

No. We repair it where it is, without disconnecting anything.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can typically be repaired. If it leaks through, replacement is normally better.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

What affects the price in The Common

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including The Common. What changes the price is:

Whether we combine several jobs
Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The colour and finish to match
What the surface is made of

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

A clear, close picture of the problem area
The material, if you know it
Details of any past repairs
Something in shot to show the size

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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.

Should you replace it?

A new basin may mean new taps, a new waste and new tiling, and if it’s part of a suite, it may not match. Repairing it avoids those problems. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
