Coveney questions

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What about a leaking crack?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Coveney included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Toilet chip repair in Coveney, done in place

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll 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. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 frequently lifts.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Pedestals
  • Cisterns & lids
  • Toilet pans
  • Vitreous china
  • Porcelain

Repair or replace in Coveney?

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire toilet
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Coveney

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes one to two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
