Toilet chip repair in Buckingham

About our toilet chip repair in Buckingham

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched 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. If you’re dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, we can help.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Buckingham as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common questions in Buckingham

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Do you work in Buckingham?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Buckingham. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will it make a mess?

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

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes one to two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What affects the price in Buckingham

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back

For a price in Buckingham, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repairing versus replacing in Buckingham

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
