Toilet chip repair in Branch End

Toilet chip repair in Branch End without replacing anything

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 will say so if we find one. Our technicians work on pedestals, porcelain and cisterns & lids, and people most frequently call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes an hour or two, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  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. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in Branch End

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Branch End use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

If you manage property in Branch End, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Repairing versus replacing in Branch End

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
