Toilet chip repair near Mordon

How we handle toilet chip repair in Mordon

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. If you are dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, 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 you book. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Mordon: your questions answered

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

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

Are there extra charges for Mordon?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

When a repair isn’t the answer

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)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What we are called out for in Mordon

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

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

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

Comparing quotes

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

10 questions to ask before booking

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow one to two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

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

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Mordon

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Work done at your home or business
  • No need to remove anything
