Choosing a repair company

Toilet chip repair in Hale without replacing anything

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We’re often asked to fix chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, in toilet pans, porcelain and pedestals.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Questions from Hale

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

When can you do it?

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

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Do you come to Hale?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Hale from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What toilet chip repair costs

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Hale, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes an hour or two, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
