Toilet chip repair in Bassingham, done in place

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 will say so if we find one. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid, we can generally put it right, on vitreous china, pedestals and cisterns & lids alike.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t 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.

Materials we work on in Bassingham

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

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes an hour or two, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Bassingham

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Bassingham questions

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you cover Bassingham?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Bassingham. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

If you’re in Bassingham and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Damage from dropped items
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
