How we handle toilet chip repair in Little Hay

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim, we can help, on cisterns & lids, porcelain and toilet pans alike.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Staffordshire. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repairing versus replacing in Little Hay

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why Little Hay clients choose us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Take a look at our pricing.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Little Hay. The price reflects:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area

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

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Little Hay, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down 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, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

What about a leaking crack?

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

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

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

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What does toilet chip repair cost?

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes an hour or two. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
