About our toilet chip repair in Pear Ash

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you’re dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Pear Ash. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Common questions in Pear Ash

What happens after I send pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Somerset.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How soon can you come?

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

What about a leaking crack?

No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace in Pear Ash?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for one to two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
