About our toilet chip repair in Kelmarsh

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will 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. We work on porcelain, toilet pans and pedestals, and people most frequently call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What we are called out for in Kelmarsh

Toilets and cisterns normally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Who will actually do the work

Should you replace it?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Kelmarsh

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

  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes an hour or two, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

For a price in Kelmarsh, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Kelmarsh

Can you quote from photos?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you work in Kelmarsh?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Kelmarsh and the rest of Northamptonshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 will tell you honestly.
