Toilet chip repair near Plealey

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Toilet chip repair in Plealey without replacing anything

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair porcelain, cisterns & lids and toilet pans, and people most frequently call us about marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Plealey questions

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Do you come to Plealey?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Plealey from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Plealey and the rest of Shropshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

How it works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes an hour or two, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. 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
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
