Toilet chip repair near Kelham

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Kelham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

About our toilet chip repair in Kelham

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, across vitreous china, porcelain and cisterns & lids.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes an hour or two, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Do you need toilet chip repair in Kelham?

Toilets and cisterns typically get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Marks on the outside of the pan

Questions to ask before booking

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • 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’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Common questions in Kelham
