Toilet chip repair in Pirnmill

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow 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. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Toilet chip repair in Pirnmill without replacing anything

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We work on pedestals, vitreous china and porcelain, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repair or replace in Pirnmill?

A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colour-matched on site

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Pirnmill

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Pirnmill included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you quote from photos?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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 pictures.
