About our toilet chip repair in Benville

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, on pedestals, cisterns & lids and vitreous china.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take one to two hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

FAQs for Benville

What does toilet chip repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

Should you replace it?

A new 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. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Benville, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Benville as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
