Need toilet chip repair in Hockley?

How we handle toilet chip repair in Hockley

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. Whether it’s chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help, on porcelain, pedestals and cisterns & lids alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet needs 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. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hockley. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Normally one visit, start to finish

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

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for one to two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

Most clients in Hockley get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Hockley

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you come to Hockley?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Hockley and the rest of Birmingham. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Birmingham.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
