About our toilet chip repair in Freeland

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Typical jobs include pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, in cisterns & lids, toilet pans and vitreous china.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlord and trade work in Freeland

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

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes one to two hours. If we find something your pictures 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. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Related advice

What affects the price in Freeland

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

If you’re in Freeland and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour-matched on site
  • No extra charge for your area

DIY kit or professional 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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

Questions from Freeland

Does someone need to be in?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

The entire UK, including all of Oxfordshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

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