What we can’t 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)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Toilet chip repair in Deaf Hill, done in place

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair pedestals, vitreous china and cisterns & lids, and people most frequently call us about chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Deaf Hill

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in County Durham and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Repairing versus replacing in Deaf Hill

A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. 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 photos, so you know the cost before booking.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes one to two hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Deaf Hill

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you quote from photos?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Marks on the outside of the pan

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts

10 questions to ask before booking

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Deaf Hill. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire toilet

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TS29 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

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, then guarantee it for a year.
