Toilet chip repair for Birdbush homes

How we handle toilet chip repair in Birdbush

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Our repair technicians work on cisterns & lids, vitreous china and toilet pans, and the jobs we see most are chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan.

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

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes an hour or two. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

For anyone letting property in or around Birdbush, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Our hiring checklist

Birdbush questions

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you cover the whole of Dorset?

Across the UK, and that includes Birdbush. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

When a repair is not the answer

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

What toilet chip repair costs

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

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work

The price 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 quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
