How we handle toilet chip repair in Hattoncrook

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair porcelain, toilet pans and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Hattoncrook and across Aberdeen. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your AB21 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

10 questions to ask before you book

Hattoncrook: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

How much does toilet chip repair cost in Hattoncrook?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take one to two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Work for landlords and builders

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

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Hattoncrook. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
