  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Advice

Toilet chip repair in Bromeswell, done in place

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, we can typically put it right.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

10 questions to ask before booking

Can I fix it myself?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

See our prices page.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bromeswell as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Common questions in Bromeswell

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How soon can you come?

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

What about a leaking crack?

No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
