Heronden questions

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What areas do you cover?

All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Toilet chip repair at your home in Heronden

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Common call-outs are for pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan, across pedestals, porcelain and vitreous china.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is 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 an hour or two.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

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

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Heronden. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it

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

Our hiring checklist

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Vitreous china
  • Pedestals
  • Cisterns & lids
  • Porcelain
  • Toilet pans

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Heronden as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Should you replace it?

A new toilet needs 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. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Heronden. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
