Trusted toilet chip repair in Gosta Green

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes an hour or two in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Toilet chip repair in Gosta Green, done in place

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Typical jobs include chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, in cisterns & lids, pedestals and porcelain.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Gosta Green questions

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What a repair can’t fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Gosta Green

  • Cisterns & lids

  • Pedestals

What affects the price in Gosta Green

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Gosta Green. The price comes down to:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

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 will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gosta Green

If you manage property in Gosta Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
