Common questions in Farrington Gurney
My house in Farrington Gurney is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?
Normally: original pieces are frequently better made and harder to replace. We’ll give you an honest view from photos.
Do you work for schools and businesses in Farrington Gurney?
Yes, commercial work is part of what we do, and our accreditations include CHAS and Constructionline. Send photos and details of the building.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole toilet and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Farrington Gurney
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. If you have chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help, on porcelain, vitreous china and cisterns & lids alike.
In and around Farrington Gurney, older homes can have toilets that are hard to replace like for like. Repairing it keeps the bathroom as it is.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Common problems we fix in Farrington Gurney
Toilets and cisterns usually get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Marks on the outside of the pan
For older houses around Farrington Gurney, near landmarks such as Church of St John the Baptist, it may still have original basins or a period toilet, which are worth repairing rather than replacing.

- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How to care for the finish
- How soon you can use it again
What affects the price in Farrington Gurney
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The material
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes cost nothing and no obligation.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Farrington Gurney as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
