FAQs for Printstile

Do you come to Printstile?

We do. We send a technician to Printstile for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

How much does toilet chip repair cost in Printstile?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Toilet chip repair at your home in Printstile

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid, in porcelain, toilet pans and pedestals.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes one to two hours. The room is left tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Work for landlords and builders

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

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Porcelain
  • Cisterns & lids
  • Toilet pans
  • Vitreous china

What affects the price in Printstile

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire toilet
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
