Toilet chip repair in Itchington

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole toilet, we can price the job.

Toilet chip repair at your home in Itchington

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Our repair technicians work on pedestals, toilet pans and cisterns & lids, and people most often call us about chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes an hour or two. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What we can’t put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Itchington

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How soon can you come?

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

What about a leaking crack?

No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
