Landlord and trade work in Grasmere
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Grasmere
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We regularly repair vitreous china, pedestals and toilet pans, and the jobs we see most are chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Grasmere questions
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Do you work in Grasmere?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Grasmere and the rest of Cumbria. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes one to two hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
If you are in Grasmere and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Should you replace it?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
