About our toilet chip repair in Breighton

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. If you’re dealing with chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, we can normally put it right, on vitreous china, pedestals and toilet pans alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlords, agents and businesses in Breighton

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes an hour or two, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Related advice

When a repair is not the answer

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)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

FAQs for Breighton

Is there a call-out fee?

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire toilet and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you price it without visiting?

Do you cover Breighton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Breighton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do I have to be there?
