How we handle toilet chip repair in Stowell

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. If you’re dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid, we can typically put it right, on cisterns & lids, porcelain and pedestals alike.

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

Repair or replace in Stowell?

A new toilet means 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: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

FAQs for Stowell

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

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

Will there be a smell?

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

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Stowell and the rest of Somerset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Landlord and trade work in Stowell

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes an hour or two. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
