10 questions to ask before you book

Toilet chip repair in Forstal without replacing anything

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, in porcelain, pedestals and toilet pans.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Forstal as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Landlord and trade work in Forstal

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Should you replace it?

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes one to two hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

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

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
