Book toilet chip repair in Kilmington

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Kilmington

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

Toilet chip repair in Kilmington without replacing anything

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Our technicians work on cisterns & lids, vitreous china and porcelain, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace in Kilmington?

Replacing a 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. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes an hour or two. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
