How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for one to two hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Toilet chip repair in Kintore, done in place

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Our repair technicians work on cisterns & lids, vitreous china and toilet pans, and common reasons people contact us are pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Kintore

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Do you work in Kintore?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Kintore for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Signs you need toilet chip repair in Kintore

  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Chips on the cistern lid

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • When it can be used again

10 questions to ask before you book

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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

Repairing versus replacing in Kintore

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
