What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- 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’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair

- Porcelain
- Vitreous china
- Cisterns & lids
- Toilet pans
Toilet chip repair at your home in Flintham
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’ll say so if we find one. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim, in toilet pans, cisterns & lids and pedestals.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

FAQs for Flintham
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do you cover the entire of Nottinghamshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Flintham included. Travel is included in the price.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you work in Flintham?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Flintham from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
If you manage property in Flintham, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
Repair or replace in Flintham?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
