Toilet chip repair at your home in Bonthorpe

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

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Vitreous china
  • Porcelain
  • Toilet pans
  • Pedestals
  • Cisterns & lids

Common problems we fix in Bonthorpe

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

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

10 questions to ask before booking

Repairing versus replacing in Bonthorpe

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

See our prices page.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes one to two hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

What affects the price in Bonthorpe

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire toilet, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Bonthorpe: your questions answered

What about a leaking crack?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
