Toilet chip repair near Old Weston

Toilet chip repair in Old Weston, done in place

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Our technicians work on vitreous china, cisterns & lids and toilet pans, and common reasons people contact us are damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Old Weston use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

What we are called out for in Old Weston

Toilets and cisterns typically get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Chips on the cistern lid

  • Damage from dropped items
  • Chips on the pan or rim

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It typically takes an hour or two, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Questions from Old Weston

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Cambridgeshire.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What affects the price in Old Weston

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repairing versus replacing in Old Weston

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

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