Toilet chip repair for Old Oscott homes

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Toilet chip repair in Old Oscott, done in place

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We’re often asked to fix chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, in porcelain, vitreous china and pedestals.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Old Oscott and across Sandwell. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes an hour or two, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
