Toilet chip repair near Great Coxwell

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

About our toilet chip repair in Great Coxwell

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Typical jobs include chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, on toilet pans, vitreous china and pedestals.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Great Coxwell questions

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Great Coxwell. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What affects the price in Great Coxwell

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For a price in Great Coxwell, 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.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow one to two hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

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