What affects the price in Tang Hall

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most customers in Tang Hall get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Toilet chip repair in Tang Hall, done in place

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 the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair cisterns & lids, vitreous china and pedestals, and people most often call us about chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to one to two hours, tidy-up included.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tang Hall

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Repair or replace in Tang Hall?

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Tang Hall: your questions answered

How do I book?

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

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

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 you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
