Toilet chip repair for Aston homes

Toilet chip repair in Aston, done in place

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Common call-outs are for chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, across vitreous china, cisterns & lids and toilet pans.

Peace of mind is built in: 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 use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. 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’ll give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • One visit for most repairs
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

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

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Aston, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes one to two hours. The room is left tidy.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed 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.
