Toilet chip repair in Cartland

Toilet chip repair in Cartland, done in place

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Typical jobs include chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and porcelain.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

  • Damage from dropped items

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

What affects the price in Cartland

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Cartland. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Most customers in Cartland get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes one to two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
