Toilet chip repair for Glithno homes

Toilet chip repair at your home in Glithno

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Typical jobs include chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, across cisterns & lids, porcelain and vitreous china.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Glithno questions

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.

Can you quote from photos?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

When we would advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Glithno as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What affects the price in Glithno

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Why repair rather than replace?

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. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Glithno. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Work done at your home or business

  • Chips on the cistern lid
