About our toilet chip repair in Gretton

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid, we can help, on toilet pans, porcelain and pedestals alike.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Gloucestershire. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take one to two hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  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 colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We leave the room as we found it

Common questions in Gretton

Do you cover Gretton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Gretton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

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

What affects the price in Gretton

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

If you’re in Gretton and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

When to call us in Gretton

Toilets and cisterns generally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Damage from dropped items
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Chips on the cistern lid

Comparing quotes

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
