Toilet chip repair in Ensbury Park

Toilet chip repair in Ensbury Park without replacing anything

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you are dealing with chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim, we can generally put it right.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Do you need toilet chip repair in Ensbury Park?

Toilets and cisterns typically get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

  • How to care for the finish
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow an hour or two from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire toilet
  • Any details about the material

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

See our prices page.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 won’t last.

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.

Ensbury Park questions

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What about a leaking crack?

No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Ensbury Park and the rest of Bournemouth. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
