How we handle toilet chip repair in Ashley

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Common call-outs are for marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid, on vitreous china, porcelain and toilet pans.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work 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. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Getting ready for the visit

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

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Ashley

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

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.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Common problems we fix in Ashley

Toilets and cisterns usually get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Marks on the outside of the pan

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
