Toilet chip repair near Ashgrove

Toilet chip repair at your home in Ashgrove

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’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, we can usually put it right, on pedestals, vitreous china and toilet pans alike.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

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

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes one to two hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  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. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Ashgrove

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Common questions in Ashgrove

How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Ashgrove?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your IV30 postcode.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Moray.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work

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.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
