Toilet chip repair for Leslie homes

Toilet chip repair in Leslie, done in place

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you’re dealing with chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, we can help, on cisterns & lids, pedestals and toilet pans alike.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Leslie and across Fife. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow one to two hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  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. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repairing versus replacing in Leslie

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Leslie questions

Can you quote from photos?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

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

What affects the price in Leslie

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

When we’d advise against a repair

We would 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)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
