Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we handle toilet chip repair in Ecclesall

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair pedestals, cisterns & lids and vitreous china, and people most often call us about chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes one to two hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the area is dry

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
