Toilet chip repair at your home in Hackenthorpe

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We are often asked to fix chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, on 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.

Hackenthorpe: your questions answered

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a 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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Landlord and trade work in Hackenthorpe

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hackenthorpe as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to one to two hours, including clearing up.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

Most clients in Hackenthorpe get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

What affects the price in Hackenthorpe

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your S12 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
