For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in West Berkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Toilet chip repair in Swallowfield without replacing anything
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, in toilet pans, pedestals and porcelain.
For a rural address like Swallowfield, tell us about access and parking, and we’ll plan the visit around it.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to an hour or two, tidy-up included. Somewhere as small as Swallowfield, access is normally the main thing to plan. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep a parking space clear if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Questions from Swallowfield
Is it worth repairing old toilets in a period home in Swallowfield?
In most cases: period pieces can be hard to match if replaced. We will give you an honest view from pictures.
Do you take on commercial work in Swallowfield?
Yes. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations and work for schools, leisure centres and businesses. Tell us about access and timings for the building.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole toilet and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Repairing versus replacing in Swallowfield
A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Older homes around Swallowfield may have sizes and fittings that new pieces do not match. Repairing avoids those problems.
