Toilet chip repair at your home in Chelmondiston

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 the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim, we can help.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chelmondiston as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common problems we fix in Chelmondiston

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

Look out for these signs:

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

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • When it can be used again
  • How changes to the job are handled

  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.
