Toilet chip repair for Little Beside homes

How we handle toilet chip repair in Little Beside

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Our technicians work on pedestals, vitreous china and porcelain, and the jobs we see most are damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

If you’re 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.

What we’re called out for in Little Beside

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Damage from dropped items

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How your room will be protected
  • Who will actually do the work

FAQs for Little Beside

Which areas do you work in?

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

No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

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 job takes one to two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
