Common questions in Marthall

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Cheshire East, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

How do I book?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Toilet chip repair in Marthall, done in place

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We regularly repair vitreous china, pedestals and porcelain, and the jobs we see most are chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repair or replace in Marthall?

A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Chips on the cistern lid

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

For anyone letting property in or around Marthall, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take one to two hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole toilet

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
