Choosing a repair company

Toilet chip repair in Martin, done in place

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. If you’re dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help, whatever the material.

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

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Martin

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you come to Martin?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Martin from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What about a leaking crack?

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

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

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

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
It’s sanded flush.
The glaze is colour matched and finished.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

How easy the damage is to reach
What the surface is made of
The colour and finish to match
The size and number of damaged areas

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

A picture taken from further back
The postcode, so we can plan the visit
The material, if you know it
Natural light rather than flash

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
