Toilet chip repair near Coton

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

About our toilet chip repair in Coton

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Our repair technicians work on vitreous china, toilet pans and pedestals, and common reasons people contact us are damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes one to two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Coton. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire toilet
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Do you cover the whole of Staffordshire?

We cover the whole UK, including Coton and the rest of Staffordshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

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

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
