What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • 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’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Doe Lea

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

Toilet chip repair in Doe Lea, done in place

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, we can help.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • The material

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole toilet, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Doe Lea

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take one to two hours.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your S44 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace in Doe Lea?

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 keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

FAQs for Doe Lea

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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