Toilet chip repair for Lower Green homes

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

About our toilet chip repair in Lower Green

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid, we can generally put it right.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Lower Green. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Lower Green, and we will reply with a fixed price.

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes one to two hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Questions from Lower Green

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

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

What happens next?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Do you cover the entire of Surrey?

We cover the whole UK, including Lower Green and the rest of Surrey. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
