FAQs for Primrose Hill

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Do you work in Primrose Hill?

We do. Technicians travel to Primrose Hill from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.

How much does toilet chip repair cost in Primrose Hill?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Toilet chip repair in Primrose Hill without replacing anything

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Repairing versus replacing in Primrose Hill

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. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

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 normally the cheaper route.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Primrose Hill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Primrose Hill. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size

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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes an hour or two, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

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

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
