Toilet chip repair in Preston on Stour

Toilet chip repair in Preston on Stour 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’ll tell you if that is what we find. We’re frequently asked to fix pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan, across pedestals, vitreous china and toilet pans.

For a rural address like Preston on Stour, tell us about access and parking, and we’ll plan the visit around it.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Preston on Stour as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes an hour or two for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used. In a village or hamlet like Preston on Stour, access can be the only tricky part. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Repairing versus replacing in Preston on Stour

A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Replacement in Preston on Stour means trades, travel and waste removal, while toilet chip repair is one trip.

Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
