Toilet chip repair for Langton Herring homes

Toilet chip repair in Langton Herring, done in place

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We are often asked to fix pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, in vitreous china, porcelain and cisterns & lids.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes one to two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Langton Herring

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.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Langton Herring as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. 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.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One visit for most repairs

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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 are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, 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.
