Toilet chip repair for Crosspost homes

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Crosspost. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How we handle toilet chip repair in Crosspost

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Typical jobs include damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, on cisterns & lids, vitreous china and toilet pans.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Crosspost: your questions answered

Can you repair several things at once?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

What does toilet chip repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

What about a leaking crack?

No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

When to call us in Crosspost

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Damage from dropped items

Before you book anyone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether they match the colour on site

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Crosspost

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to one to two hours, including clearing up.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your RH17 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
