Toilet chip repair in Cliff

How we handle toilet chip repair in Cliff

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim, we can help, on cisterns & lids, vitreous china and toilet pans alike.

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

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Cliff. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your B78 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

Cliff: your questions answered

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you cover the entire of Staffordshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Cliff included. Travel is included in the price.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Cliff, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repairing versus replacing in Cliff

Replacing a 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. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Cliff

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • When it can be used again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take an hour or two, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
