About our toilet chip repair in Kelling

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Norfolk. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

FAQs for Kelling

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you cover the entire of Norfolk?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Kelling. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll 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)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Kelling. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What affects the price in Kelling

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kelling as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes one to two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
