Landlords, agents and businesses in Marks Tey
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Marks Tey as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Toilet chip repair in Marks Tey, done in place
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. If you are dealing with chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help, on cisterns & lids, toilet pans and vitreous china alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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.

Repairing versus replacing in Marks Tey
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
