Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it

If you are in Alsop en le Dale and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Toilet chip repair in Alsop en le Dale, done in place

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We’re frequently asked to fix damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, in toilet pans, porcelain and pedestals.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Landlord and trade work in Alsop en le Dale

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Alsop en le Dale use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take one to two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the area is dry

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
