Toilet chip repair in Hatford without replacing anything

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Our repair technicians work on vitreous china, cisterns & lids and toilet pans, and common reasons people contact us are marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. 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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What we cannot put right

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

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Hatford

Repair or replace in Hatford?

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take an hour or two, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  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. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire toilet and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Can you quote from pictures?

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

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

What toilet chip repair costs

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

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
