Our hiring checklist

About our toilet chip repair in Fontwell

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on vitreous china, porcelain and toilet pans, and the jobs we see most are chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes one to two hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  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. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your BN18 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Compared with replacing, 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.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most clients in Fontwell get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repairing versus replacing in Fontwell

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why Fontwell clients choose us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
