Toilet chip repair in Bampton without replacing anything

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We work on porcelain, toilet pans and cisterns & lids, and people most often call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Devon. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Bampton questions

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

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

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • 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.

Materials we work on in Bampton

When to call us in Bampton

  • Marks on the outside of the pan

  • Chips on the cistern lid

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take one to two hours.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

What affects the price in Bampton

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
