What we cannot 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)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we handle toilet chip repair in Crosby-on-Eden

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes an hour or two. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Related advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Crosby-on-Eden. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why Crosby-on-Eden customers choose us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

See our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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

Landlord and trade work in Crosby-on-Eden

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Crosby-on-Eden questions

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Crosby-on-Eden. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
