Toilet chip repair for Paulton homes

About our toilet chip repair in Paulton

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 will say so if we find one. We are often asked to fix pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, across cisterns & lids, toilet pans and vitreous china.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Before and after: a damaged toilet pan restored by Surface Doctor

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 will say what we think.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace in Paulton?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Paulton

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • No extra charge for your area

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes one to two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What affects the price in Paulton

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
