Toilet chip repair near Homer Green

How we handle toilet chip repair in Homer Green

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help, on pedestals, cisterns & lids and vitreous china alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Landlord and trade work in Homer Green

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Sefton and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Homer Green questions

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What about a leaking crack?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take one to two hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  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. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
