What affects the price in Fforest

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Fforest. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

About our toilet chip repair in Fforest

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 tell you if that is what we find. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, we can help, on porcelain, cisterns & lids and pedestals alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Fforest: your questions answered

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

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 any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Do you cover the entire of Swansea?

All of Swansea, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Repairing versus replacing in Fforest

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Fforest. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Fforest clients choose us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take one to two hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Do you need toilet chip repair in Fforest?

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Damage from dropped items

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the colour is matched

How to compare quotes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Fforest

Letting agents often 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.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
