How we handle toilet chip repair in Painters Ash

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We are often asked to fix pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, across cisterns & lids, vitreous china and toilet pans.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What affects the price in Painters Ash

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Painters Ash as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

When to call us in Painters Ash

  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Marks on the outside of the pan

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who will actually do the work

10 questions to ask before booking

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take an hour or two, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, 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. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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’ll say what we think.
