How we handle toilet chip repair in Norton

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you are dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes one to two hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace in Norton?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Norton questions

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Do you come to Norton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Norton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Norton included. Travel is included in the price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
