About our toilet chip repair in Delves

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you’re dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, we can help, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Delves. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole toilet

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Repair or replace in Delves?

A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colour-matched on site

Landlord and trade work in Delves

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes one to two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire toilet, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
