Need toilet chip repair in Kingston Vale?

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why Kingston Vale clients choose us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • No need to remove anything

About our toilet chip repair in Kingston Vale

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair pedestals, vitreous china and toilet pans, and the jobs we see most are pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

For anyone letting property in or around Kingston Vale, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Greater London and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

The process

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It generally takes one to two hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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 match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Choosing a repair company

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Kingston Vale. The price reflects:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode

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 are under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

FAQs for Kingston Vale

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Do you cover the entire of Greater London?

The whole UK, including all of Greater London. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
