About our toilet chip repair in Penn

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. Our repair technicians work on toilet pans, porcelain and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in Penn

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

See our prices page.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes an hour or two. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Questions from Penn

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What about a leaking crack?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

What does toilet chip repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

What we can’t put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
