About our toilet chip repair in Dunragit

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you are dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, we can help.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Take care with 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 generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for an hour or two from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its 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

  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice

What affects the price in Dunragit

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Dunragit. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Repair or replace in Dunragit?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Dunragit

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Dumfries and Galloway.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Dunragit, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Dumfries and Galloway and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What a repair can’t fix

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly.
