Common questions in Guilsfield
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Guilsfield is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
About our toilet chip repair in Guilsfield
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Our repair technicians work on pedestals, toilet pans and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people get in touch are pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

- Chips on the cistern lid
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Damage from dropped items
What your quote should include
- How the colour is matched

The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes an hour or two. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the area is dry

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
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.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Guilsfield, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Porcelain
- Pedestals
- Vitreous china

For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
