Need toilet chip repair in Lichfield?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Toilet chip repair at your home in Lichfield

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. If you’re dealing with damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help, on toilet pans, porcelain and pedestals alike.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Staffordshire. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Lichfield

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for an hour or two. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole toilet, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

When to call us in Lichfield

Toilets and cisterns generally get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

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

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
