Trusted toilet chip repair in Great Heck

Toilet chip repair in Great Heck, done in place

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair pedestals, cisterns & lids and porcelain, and common reasons people get in touch are marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Great Heck. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire toilet
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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 booking.

What we work on

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

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow an hour or two, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Should you replace it?

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
