Toilet chip repair for Colebatch homes

Toilet chip repair at your home in Colebatch

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you are dealing with chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, we can generally put it right.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Colebatch

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Shropshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why Colebatch clients choose us

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire toilet
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Most customers in Colebatch get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

10 questions to ask before booking

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

The process

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes one to two hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

FAQs for Colebatch

Are there extra charges for Colebatch?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

When a repair isn’t the answer

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)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
