How we handle toilet chip repair in Ashprington

A crack that leaks cannot 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 the toilet stays in place. If you are dealing with chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid, we can usually put it right.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Ashprington questions

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Are there extra charges for Ashprington?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes an hour or two. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  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. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Ashprington. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Ashprington. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your TQ9 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
