Toilet chip repair at your home in Abbey Village

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you are dealing with damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, we can typically put it right, on pedestals, toilet pans and vitreous china alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. 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.

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Repair or replace in Abbey Village?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Abbey Village. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Abbey Village

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Abbey Village included. Travel is included in the price.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What does toilet chip repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes an hour or two. The room is left tidy.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
