Toilet chip repair near Plumbley

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Plumbley as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Toilet chip repair in Plumbley without replacing anything

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. If you are dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Common questions in Plumbley

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire toilet and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material

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

Quotes from your photos

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

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new toilet needs 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. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Everything repaired in place
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Read our pricing.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Plumbley

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

What we are called out for in Plumbley

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Marks on the outside of the pan

Comparing quotes

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How to look after the finish
  • If travel is included in the price
