About our toilet chip repair in Purbrook

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Typical jobs include chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, in cisterns & lids, toilet pans and vitreous china.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What affects the price in Purbrook

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Purbrook. The price comes down to:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take an hour or two. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  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. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Questions from Purbrook

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Purbrook. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Purbrook.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Purbrook, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Purbrook

A new toilet means 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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
