Toilet chip repair for Long Ditton homes

Toilet chip repair at your home in Long Ditton

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Our repair technicians work on pedestals, cisterns & lids and vitreous china, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Long Ditton: your questions answered

Will it make a mess?

Do you cover Long Ditton?

We do. Technicians travel to Long Ditton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is repairing better than replacing?

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for one to two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your KT6 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Should you replace it?

A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What a repair cannot fix

  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
