Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Harcombe Bottom as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
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.
Toilet chip repair in Harcombe Bottom without replacing anything
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Our repair technicians work on toilet pans, vitreous china and porcelain, and common reasons people get in touch are damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Harcombe Bottom and across Dorset. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What affects the price in Harcombe Bottom
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Harcombe Bottom, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Harcombe Bottom: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
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 you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Advice
What a repair can’t fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- 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.
