Toilet chip repair in Myerscough Smithy

Toilet chip repair in Myerscough Smithy without replacing anything

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We work on porcelain, cisterns & lids and vitreous china, and common reasons people contact us are pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A crack through the bowl or trap

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Myerscough Smithy

What about a leaking crack?

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your BB2 postcode.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes one to two hours.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely 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.
