Toilet chip repair for Drayton Bassett homes

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Toilet chip repair in Drayton Bassett, done in place

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We regularly repair vitreous china, cisterns & lids and porcelain, and people most frequently call us about chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow an hour or two from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Repairing versus replacing in Drayton Bassett

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • One visit for most repairs
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

See our pricing.

Work for landlords and builders

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.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Staffordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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 toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We don’t add 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.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
