How to compare quotes

Toilet chip repair in East Mains without replacing anything

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, 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. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, we can help, on toilet pans, pedestals and porcelain alike.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in East Mains

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in East Mains as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repairing versus replacing in East Mains

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Take a look at our full price list.

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in East Mains

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Is my repair covered?

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

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

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

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of South Lanarkshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

What does toilet chip repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you cover East Mains?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to East Mains. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
