Westwood: your questions answered
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- A basin cracked through and leaking
- Glaze crazing across the entire basin, where resurfacing is better
- Plumbing leaks
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Vanity unit basins
- Antique & period basins
- Ceramic & vitreous china basins
- Enamelled basins
- Belfast and butler sinks
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a couple of hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We check the basin is secure and not leaking.
- The area is degreased and keyed.
- We build up the filler and sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched.
- We clear away and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Landlord and trade work in Westwood
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Westwood as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Repair chips before they stain
- Use mild cleaners only
- Keep heavy bottles off the rim
- Ask a plumber not to overtighten fittings
Wipe the basin over after use, and avoid strong bleach or descalers.
Chips collect dirt and stain over time, so repairing them early keeps the job simple.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- One picture of the whole basin
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
