Toilet chip repair in Lamas, done in place

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 repair technicians work on cisterns & lids, vitreous china and pedestals, and people most frequently call us about marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Can I fix it myself?

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

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we are called out for in Lamas

Toilets and cisterns normally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

Common questions in Lamas

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What about a leaking crack?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

What areas do you cover?

All of Norfolk, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

Repair or replace in Lamas?

A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Lamas. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What affects the price in Lamas

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • Details of any past repairs

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NR10 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Landlord and trade work in Lamas

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What a repair can’t fix

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)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes one to two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt 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.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
