Landlord and trade work in Gibbonsdown

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Toilet chip repair at your home in Gibbonsdown

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 tell you if that’s what we find. We regularly repair cisterns & lids, porcelain and toilet pans, and people most often call us about chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting.

In and around Gibbonsdown, a toilet repair is usually a short visit, with the toilet left in place.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What affects the price in Gibbonsdown

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Gibbonsdown. What changes the price is:

Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Doing more than one item at once
The size and number of damaged areas
Access to the area

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

What it’s made of, if you know
Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A picture taken from further back
Where you are, by postcode

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

Vitreous china
Cisterns & lids
Pedestals
Toilet pans
Porcelain

We also work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, so if you care for a building such as Oakfield Primary School, toilets and washrooms can be repaired in place too.

10 questions to ask before booking

Questions from Gibbonsdown

Can you repair toilets in a rental near Cadoxton station?

Yes, landlords and agents book us regularly.

My house in Gibbonsdown is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?

Often, yes: original pieces are normally worth keeping. Send us photos and we’ll tell you what’s possible.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Repairing versus replacing in Gibbonsdown

A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. For a home around Gibbonsdown where the toilet is sound, replacing it is rarely worth the cost and disruption.

Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
