What affects the price in Charlton Musgrove

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Charlton Musgrove. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Toilet chip repair in Charlton Musgrove without replacing anything

A crack that leaks can’t 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 the toilet stays in place. If you are dealing with damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, we can usually put it right, on porcelain, toilet pans and cisterns & lids alike.

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

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes one to two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

Common questions in Charlton Musgrove

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What about a leaking crack?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
