Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes one to two hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Toilet chip repair at your home in Brompton

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Typical jobs include marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, in porcelain, pedestals and toilet pans.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Yorkshire. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Brompton: your questions answered

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

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 next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

What about a leaking crack?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Most customers in Brompton get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we’re called out for in Brompton

Toilets and cisterns typically get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Chips on the pan or rim

Questions to ask before booking

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What prep work is covered

10 questions to ask before you book

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Brompton

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

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 generally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
