About our toilet chip repair in Chathill

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We are frequently asked to fix pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan, across vitreous china, toilet pans and pedestals.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

10 questions to ask before you book

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes an hour or two. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NE67 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Chathill. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Chathill questions

Do you come to Chathill?

We do. We send a technician to Chathill for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

What we can’t put right

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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Chathill

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
