10 questions to ask before you book

Toilet chip repair at your home in Broadbridge

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on pedestals, vitreous china and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Broadbridge and across West Sussex. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What affects the price in Broadbridge

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is

Rather than charging by the hour, 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

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes an hour or two, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Advice

FAQs for Broadbridge

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you come to Broadbridge?

We do. Technicians travel to Broadbridge from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Landlord and trade work in Broadbridge

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Broadbridge use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Repair or replace in Broadbridge?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Broadbridge. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
