Toilet chip repair in Clawton

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the 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

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Toilet chip repair in Clawton without replacing anything

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair vitreous china, toilet pans and pedestals, and common reasons people get in touch are damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

What we’re called out for in Clawton

Toilets and cisterns typically get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Damage from dropped items

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How long it needs to cure

Landlord and trade work in Clawton

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Clawton use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

What affects the price in Clawton

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
