Toilet chip repair near Milton on Stour

About our toilet chip repair in Milton on Stour

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We work on cisterns & lids, vitreous china and toilet pans, and the jobs we see most are chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Milton on Stour. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

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 over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes one to two hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t 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 will say what we think before you book.

When to call us in Milton on Stour

Toilets and cisterns usually get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Damage from dropped items

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

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, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
