About our toilet chip repair in Intake

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Whether it’s chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim, we can typically put it right, on cisterns & lids, toilet pans and pedestals alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Intake and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Intake. The price comes down to:

  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes an hour or two. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  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 colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Intake use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No need to remove anything
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Intake questions

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Intake and the rest of Doncaster. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

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.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
