Trusted toilet chip repair in North Fringe of Bristol

Toilet chip repair in North Fringe of Bristol, done in place

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We’re frequently asked to fix chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, on pedestals, cisterns & lids and porcelain.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repairing versus replacing in North Fringe of Bristol

A new 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. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Same prices wherever you are

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Work for landlords and builders

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.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Common problems we fix in North Fringe of Bristol

Toilets and cisterns normally 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:

  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Chips on the pan or rim

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What preparation is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes an hour or two, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price
