What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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’ll say what we think.

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

How we handle toilet chip repair in Quothquan

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Quothquan. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Quothquan as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Quothquan: your questions answered

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Are there extra charges for Quothquan?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Do you cover Quothquan?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Quothquan. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What about a leaking crack?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Repair or replace in Quothquan?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

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

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take one to two hours, including clearing up.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
