Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Landlord and trade work in Tirley Knowle

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.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

What sink repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Tirley Knowle. The price reflects:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What your basin is made of matters

Vitreous china

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

Composite and resin

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

Signs you need sink repair in Tirley Knowle

Fine crazing in the glaze is generally down to age, and harsh cleaners can make it worse.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips around the rim
  • Crazing in the glaze
  • Damage to a basin in a vanity unit
  • A crack near the taps

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Questions from Tirley Knowle

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can landlords book you?

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

What areas do you cover?

All of Gloucestershire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you disconnect the taps?

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

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Use mild cleaners only
  • Don’t overtighten taps
  • Use a heat mat for hair tools
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Keep hair straighteners and heavy bottles away from the basin edge, so it does not get chipped again.

Cracks by the tap holes can grow, so get it looked at early. If it’s leaking, turn off the water to the basin until it’s checked.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a couple of hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by cleaning the basin and assessing the damage.
  2. The chip or crack is filled and shaped to match the basin.
  3. The finish is matched to the glaze.
  4. The repair is polished so it blends in.
  5. The basin can usually be used later that day or the following day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
