Toilet chip repair for Podmore homes

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

How we handle toilet chip repair in Podmore

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We’re frequently asked to fix chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, across toilet pans, pedestals and cisterns & lids.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

The process

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes one to two hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Related advice

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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.

Repairing versus replacing in Podmore

Replacing a 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. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Podmore

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
