Toilet chip repair in Oakley

About our toilet chip repair in Oakley

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Common call-outs are for pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim, across toilet pans, cisterns & lids and vitreous china.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace in Oakley?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Same prices wherever you are

FAQs for Oakley

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Buckinghamshire.

Do you cover Oakley?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Oakley and the rest of Buckinghamshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

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

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What affects the price in Oakley

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Oakley. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole toilet

There is no need for us to visit first. 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.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow an hour or two from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price
