Toilet chip repair near Kelton

Toilet chip repair in Kelton without replacing anything

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, we can normally put it right.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t 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 will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Should you replace it?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take one to two hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Kelton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
