Toilet chip repair in Linton-on-Ouse, done in place

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you’re dealing with chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, we can help, whatever the material.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in York. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How it works

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take one to two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Take a look at our pricing.

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Linton-on-Ouse, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What we can’t put right

We will not 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)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
