Toilet chip repair near Collaton St Mary

Toilet chip repair at your home in Collaton St Mary

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, we can help, whatever the material.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Collaton St Mary as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a toilet needs 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. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We leave the room as we found it

Collaton St Mary: your questions answered

What about a leaking crack?

No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Torbay. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes an hour or two. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole toilet, we can price the job.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the entire toilet

Most customers in Collaton St Mary get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
