Toilet chip repair near Hayden

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

How we handle toilet chip repair in Hayden

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet
  • Natural light rather than flash

For a price in Hayden, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What we’re called out for in Hayden

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.

The things clients typically mention when they call are:

  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Chips on the pan or rim

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How soon you can use it again

Our hiring checklist

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

  • Vitreous china
  • Porcelain
  • Cisterns & lids
  • Toilet pans
  • Pedestals

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Hayden questions

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you come to Hayden?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hayden. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

What does toilet chip repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for one to two hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  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. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Related advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
