Trusted toilet chip repair in Bolham

Toilet chip repair at your home in Bolham

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. We are frequently asked to fix damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, on vitreous china, toilet pans and cisterns & lids.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

When to call us in Bolham

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire toilet
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Bolham

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

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

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

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.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Read our prices page.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

When we would advise against a repair

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)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
