Toilet chip repair in Darlton

How we handle toilet chip repair in Darlton

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’ll say so if we find one. We’re often asked to fix marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, in pedestals, toilet pans and porcelain.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to an hour or two, including clearing up.

  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. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

Questions from Darlton

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you work in Darlton?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Darlton and the rest of Nottinghamshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • A crack that leaks water

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
