What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we would 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

About our toilet chip repair in Friday Street

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. If you’re dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, we can typically put it right.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Friday Street: your questions answered

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What does toilet chip repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Are there extra charges for Friday Street?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you come to Friday Street?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Friday Street for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you quote from pictures?

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

Landlord and trade work in Friday Street

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Should you replace it?

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for an hour or two. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

What affects the price in Friday Street

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

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is

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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

When to call us in Friday Street

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who turns up on the day
  • When it can be used again
  • What aftercare is recommended
