Toilet chip repair in Bonning Gate, done in place

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Our repair technicians work on vitreous china, pedestals and porcelain, and people most frequently call us about marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

  • Damage from dropped items
  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Chips on the pan or rim

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How your room will be protected
  • How long it needs to cure
  • If travel is included in the price

Choosing a repair company

What we can’t put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Common questions in Bonning Gate

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

What about a leaking crack?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is my repair covered?

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

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Are there extra charges for Bonning Gate?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bonning Gate. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repair or replace in Bonning Gate?

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour-matched on site
