Toilet chip repair in Pontlottyn

About our toilet chip repair in Pontlottyn

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on toilet pans, pedestals and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Pontlottyn. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that won’t 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)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace in Pontlottyn?

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Everything repaired in place
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Read our pricing.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
