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

Toilet chip repair at your home in Appleton Wiske

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Typical jobs include chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, in vitreous china, pedestals and cisterns & lids.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

FAQs for Appleton Wiske

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes an hour or two, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can give you a fixed price.

Related advice

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Appleton Wiske. The price reflects:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Appleton Wiske use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
