Questions from Unthank
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you cover Unthank?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Unthank from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Toilet chip repair in Unthank without replacing anything
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair cisterns & lids, pedestals and vitreous china, and common reasons people contact us are pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Unthank
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, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Unthank use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
For anyone letting property in or around Unthank, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
