Trusted toilet chip repair in Low Fell

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole toilet, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Toilet chip repair in Low Fell, done in place

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We work on porcelain, cisterns & lids and pedestals, and the jobs we see most are damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Landlord and trade work in Low Fell

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How it works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes an hour or two, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  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. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get 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’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Repairing versus replacing in Low Fell

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why Low Fell customers choose us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Work done at your home or business
  • No need to remove anything
