Toilet chip repair in Radstock

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes one to two hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

Toilet chip repair in Radstock, done in place

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Our technicians work on pedestals, cisterns & lids and vitreous china, and the jobs we see most are chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace in Radstock?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Work done at your home or business

Landlord and trade work in Radstock

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Somerset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Common questions in Radstock

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

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.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

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

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you work in Radstock?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Radstock from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is it messy?

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

How we price toilet chip repair

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

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
