Toilet chip repair near Alway

How we handle toilet chip repair in Alway

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, we can help, on vitreous china, cisterns & lids and pedestals alike.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

10 questions to ask before booking

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Alway. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back

For a price in Alway, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes one to two hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
