FAQs for Cosmore

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Do you come to Cosmore?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Cosmore and the rest of Dorset. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole toilet and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

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 a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

Toilet chip repair in Cosmore, done in place

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We work on toilet pans, porcelain and vitreous china, and the jobs we see most are marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. 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.

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes an hour or two. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repairing versus replacing in Cosmore

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts 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.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Do you need toilet chip repair in Cosmore?

Toilets and cisterns usually get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Chips on the cistern lid

10 questions to ask before you book

What affects the price in Cosmore

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

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 price, not an estimate.
