Toilet chip repair for Bankside homes

How we handle toilet chip repair in Bankside

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 you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We are often asked to fix marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid, on porcelain, cisterns & lids and vitreous china.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Landlord and trade work in Bankside

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Common questions in Bankside

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

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

Do you cover the entire of Greater London?

Across the UK, and that includes Bankside. Prices do not change with location.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What does toilet chip repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Do you work in Bankside?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Bankside and the rest of Greater London. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Bankside. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SE1 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take one to two hours, including clearing up.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  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. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

If you are in Bankside and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • A fixed quote before you book
