Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Abbotsford. The price comes down to:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Abbotsford. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.

Toilet chip repair in Abbotsford without replacing anything

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Common questions in Abbotsford

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of West Sussex. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Will there be a smell?

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

What happens next?

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

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

What we cannot put right

What we’re called out for in Abbotsford

  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes one to two hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the area is dry
