Toilet chip repair near Potterspury

Toilet chip repair in Potterspury without replacing anything

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Typical jobs include pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, across pedestals, cisterns & lids and porcelain.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Potterspury questions

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Can I fix it myself?

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take one to two hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

What we are called out for in Potterspury

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

  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Marks on the outside of the pan

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Landlords, agents and businesses in Potterspury

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
