Toilet chip repair for Blackhall Mill homes

Toilet chip repair in Blackhall Mill without replacing anything

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched 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. If you’re dealing with damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes one to two hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the area is dry

What affects the price in Blackhall Mill

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Blackhall Mill. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • One picture of the entire toilet
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A crack that leaks water

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

Repair or replace in Blackhall Mill?

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit.
