Toilet chip repair for Kilmaluag homes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we handle toilet chip repair in Kilmaluag

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 you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair vitreous china, porcelain and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan.

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

Questions from Kilmaluag

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire toilet and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Common problems we fix in Kilmaluag

Toilets and cisterns generally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Chips on the cistern lid

Before you book anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

How it works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes one to two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Kilmaluag. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your IV51 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
