Toilet chip repair in Long Clawson

About our toilet chip repair in Long Clawson

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair pedestals, porcelain and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

When we would advise against a repair

We’d 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlord and trade work in Long Clawson

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Long Clawson: your questions answered

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you come to Long Clawson?

We do. We send a technician to Long Clawson for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Are there extra charges for Long Clawson?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

What do you need from me?

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Long Clawson. The price comes down to:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the entire toilet
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes an hour or two. The room is left tidy.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
