10 questions to ask before booking

How we handle toilet chip repair in Armitage

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We are frequently asked to fix chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, in pedestals, toilet pans and vitreous china.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, 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.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes an hour or two. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Common questions in Armitage

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Staffordshire.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Armitage

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
