How we handle toilet chip repair in Walsgrave on Sowe

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Walsgrave on Sowe and across Coventry. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Walsgrave on Sowe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Walsgrave on Sowe. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
