How we handle toilet chip repair in Barnetby le Wold

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, we can help, on toilet pans, vitreous china and pedestals alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Barnetby le Wold. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire toilet
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DN38 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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 photos and we will say what we think.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes an hour or two. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
