How we handle toilet chip repair in Lordswood

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair toilet pans, pedestals and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people contact us are damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Lordswood. The price comes down to:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Lordswood. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Lordswood

Do you come to Lordswood?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Lordswood for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

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

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Southampton. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lordswood use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take one to two hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

What a repair can’t fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing 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)

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

Materials we work on in Lordswood

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

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 leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
