Toilet chip repair in Castor, done in place

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will 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. We work on pedestals, toilet pans and porcelain, and people most frequently call us about chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Do you need toilet chip repair in Castor?

Toilets and cisterns usually get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.

People typically call us when they notice one of these:

  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Chips on the cistern lid

What your quote should include

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take one to two hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

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)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Castor

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace in Castor?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
