Toilet chip repair in Eccleston

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How we handle toilet chip repair in Eccleston

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, we can help, on pedestals, cisterns & lids and toilet pans alike.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Flintshire. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. 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. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we would 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 photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Eccleston

  • Toilet pans
  • Pedestals

What affects the price in Eccleston

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

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

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take one to two hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  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. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CH4 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
