Toilet chip repair for Malting Green homes

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes one to two hours, 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. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

Toilet chip repair in Malting Green, done in place

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Our technicians work on pedestals, cisterns & lids and toilet pans, and people most often call us about chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Malting Green

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

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

How much does toilet chip repair cost in Malting Green?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do I have to be there?

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

What about a leaking crack?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.

What toilet chip repair costs

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CO2 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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

What we can’t put right

We would 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
