Toilet chip repair in Hardwicke

Toilet chip repair at your home in Hardwicke

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 don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on pedestals, cisterns & lids and vitreous china, and the jobs we see most are chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Hardwicke and across Gloucestershire. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Marks on the outside of the pan

  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Damage from dropped items

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Hardwicke: your questions answered

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is there a guarantee?

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

How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Hardwicke?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your GL2 postcode.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.

What areas do you cover?

All of Gloucestershire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No need to remove anything
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • 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 photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hardwicke

If you manage property in Hardwicke, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the entire toilet
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire toilet, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes one to two hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
