Toilet chip repair in Fordell Firs, done in place

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We regularly repair porcelain, vitreous china and pedestals, and the jobs we see most are marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It usually takes one to two hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. 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. 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.

Common questions in Fordell Firs

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What does toilet chip repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Are there extra charges for Fordell Firs?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • 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 before booking.

Repair or replace in Fordell Firs?

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. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
