Common questions in Charlton

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Charlton?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Toilet chip repair in Charlton without replacing anything

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’ll say so if we find one. We work on porcelain, pedestals and cisterns & lids, and people most frequently call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Charlton as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace in Charlton?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why us?

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colour-matched on site

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes an hour or two for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  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 colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for 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’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What affects the price in Charlton

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material and finish

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
