Book toilet chip repair in Birches Green

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • One picture of the entire toilet
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For a price in Birches Green, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How we handle toilet chip repair in Birches Green

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you are dealing with damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

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

Repair or replace in Birches Green?

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t 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.

Choosing a repair company

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes one to two hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Birches Green: your questions answered

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

What about a leaking crack?

No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Do you work in Birches Green?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Birches Green. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Birches Green, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
