How we handle toilet chip repair in Kilncadzow

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on toilet pans, porcelain and cisterns & lids, and people most frequently call us about chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes an hour or two. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the area is dry

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. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

10 questions to ask before booking

Kilncadzow: your questions answered

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Are there extra charges for Kilncadzow?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What does toilet chip repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Kilncadzow is covered. Prices do not change with location.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can you quote from pictures?

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

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

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

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

Surfaces we repair

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