Long Sandall: your questions answered
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What areas do you cover?
All of Doncaster, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
About our toilet chip repair in Long Sandall
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will 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. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, we can help.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Doncaster. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Landlord and trade work in Long Sandall
If you manage property in Long Sandall, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
For developers and builders, we fix 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.
What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole toilet
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can price the job.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take one to two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on
