Toilet chip repair for Drimpton homes

Toilet chip repair in Drimpton without replacing anything

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Common call-outs are for pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and porcelain.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Drimpton: your questions answered

What about a leaking crack?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.

How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Drimpton?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Drimpton and the rest of Dorset. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • No extra charge for your area

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes an hour or two, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Landlord and trade work in Drimpton

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

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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