Trusted toilet chip repair in Chartham

When to call us in Chartham

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.

Look out for any of the following:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

How to compare quotes

Toilet chip repair at your home in Chartham

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We regularly repair vitreous china, toilet pans and porcelain, and people most often call us about marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Questions from Chartham

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Will it make a mess?

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

Are there extra charges for Chartham?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes one to two hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

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

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice

When we would advise against a repair

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

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
