Choosing a repair company

Toilet chip repair in Keldholme without replacing anything

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Our technicians work on vitreous china, cisterns & lids and toilet pans, and common reasons people contact us are marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Landlord and trade work in Keldholme

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Keldholme as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

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.

Common questions in Keldholme

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Will there be a smell?

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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 from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Advice

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
