Toilet chip repair near Funtington

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Funtington. The price reflects:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

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

How to get a fixed quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire toilet
  • Something in shot to show the size

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Toilet chip repair in Funtington, done in place

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Our technicians work on vitreous china, toilet pans and porcelain, and common reasons people get in touch are marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Funtington questions

How much does toilet chip repair cost in Funtington?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PO18 postcode.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is it messy?

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

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

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

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Funtington is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Funtington. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Funtington

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes an hour or two. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  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. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price
