Westmancote questions

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you quote from photos?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you cover the whole of Gloucestershire?

We work UK-wide, so Westmancote is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Toilet chip repair in Westmancote, done in place

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We are often asked to fix marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, on porcelain, toilet pans and cisterns & lids.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What affects the price in Westmancote

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Common problems we fix in Westmancote

  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Damage from dropped items

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the room is protected while they work

10 questions to ask before you book

When a repair is not the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Porcelain
  • Toilet pans
  • Cisterns & lids
  • Vitreous china
  • Pedestals

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take one to two hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

For a price in Westmancote, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Why repair rather than replace?

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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 photos.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
