Toilet Chip Repair in Somerset

About toilet chip repair in Somerset

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Our repair technicians work on cisterns & lids, pedestals and vitreous china, and the jobs we see most are chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan.

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes an hour or two. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

What it costs in Somerset

Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Local landmarks in Taunton

Typical jobs here are in homes near Vivary Park, Richard Huish College and Masons Arms, among other places. Other local landmarks include St George's Catholic School (less than half a mile south), St Mary Magdalene (within half a mile south-west) and The Castle School (0.8 miles west). Taunton’s nearest station is Taunton station, about 0.5 miles north of the centre. Other landmarks nearby include Musgrove Park Hospital (0.9 miles west) and Castle Hotel (within half a mile west). For a walk, there is Knowle Hill.

What affects the price in Somerset

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

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.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Somerset

Toilets and cisterns generally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

Common reasons people in Somerset contact us include:

  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Marks on the outside of the pan

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

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

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have.

Somerset questions

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

Can you quote from photos?

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

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
