Toilet chip repair near Purton Stoke

Toilet chip repair in Purton Stoke, done in place

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 you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We are often asked to fix chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid, on cisterns & lids, toilet pans and vitreous china.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Swindon. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes an hour or two. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Related advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What affects the price in Purton Stoke

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
