About our toilet chip repair in Marylebone

A crack that leaks cannot 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 cistern lid and damage from dropped items, we can normally put it right.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wigan. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repairing versus replacing in Marylebone

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. 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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

FAQs for Marylebone

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes one to two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price
