Toilet chip repair near Dagnall

Toilet chip repair in Dagnall, done in place

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We regularly repair toilet pans, vitreous china and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people get in touch are damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace in Dagnall?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes an hour or two. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear the area around the damage

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back

Most customers in Dagnall get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
