Toilet chip repair for Kilkerran homes

About our toilet chip repair in Kilkerran

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. If you’re dealing with damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, we can normally put it right, on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and pedestals alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Kilkerran and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take one to two hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For anyone letting property in or around Kilkerran, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a 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. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

How we price toilet chip repair

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
