Toilet chip repair in Gatton

About our toilet chip repair in Gatton

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you are dealing with chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid, we can usually put it right, on vitreous china, cisterns & lids and toilet pans alike.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Should you replace it?

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

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

Gatton: your questions answered

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Are there extra charges for Gatton?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you come to Gatton?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Gatton. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How to compare quotes

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Gatton. What changes the price is:

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

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Gatton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire toilet

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes an hour or two. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the 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

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
