Toilet chip repair for Putney homes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Toilet chip repair at your home in Putney

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We regularly repair toilet pans, porcelain and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Putney and across Greater London. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should you replace it?

A new toilet needs 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. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Putney: your questions answered

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

What happens after I send pictures?

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

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Chips on the cistern lid

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Putney

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Putney. The price reflects:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • Something in shot to show the size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Putney

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

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes an hour or two. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
