How we handle toilet chip repair in Greengairs

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, across cisterns & lids, toilet pans and vitreous china.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take one to two hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Questions from Greengairs

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you work in Greengairs?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Greengairs for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What about a leaking crack?

No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Do you need toilet chip repair in Greengairs?

Toilets and cisterns normally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Damage from dropped items

What to look for in a quote

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

What toilet chip repair costs

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

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
