Toilet chip repair for Matlaske homes

Toilet chip repair in Matlaske, done in place

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. If you are dealing with chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

If you manage property in Matlaske, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • No need to remove anything
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Matlaske. The price comes down to:

  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A few things move the price: 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 pictures

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow an hour or two from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer.
