10 questions to ask before you book

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Amotherby. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Can I fix it myself?

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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

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.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes one to two hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  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 match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Amotherby

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

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Questions from Amotherby

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Amotherby and the rest of North Yorkshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
