Toilet chip repair near Annan

Should you replace it?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Toilet chip repair at your home in Annan

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Typical jobs include pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, in pedestals, toilet pans and porcelain.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Vitreous china
  • Porcelain
  • Pedestals
  • Cisterns & lids

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Annan. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

FAQs for Annan

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Annan use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt is not 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 pictures.

The process

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes one to two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
