Toilet chip repair in Coaley, done in place

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll 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. Typical jobs include marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, in vitreous china, porcelain and toilet pans.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repairing versus replacing in Coaley

Replacing a toilet means 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. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What affects the price in Coaley

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes an hour or two, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  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. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Work for landlords and builders

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

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Coaley questions

What does toilet chip repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your GL11 postcode.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Coaley is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
