10 questions to ask before you book

Toilet chip repair at your home in Vernham Street

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, in vitreous china, cisterns & lids and toilet pans.

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.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Vernham Street

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for an hour or two from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Common questions in Vernham Street

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

The entire UK, including all of Hampshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
