About our toilet chip repair in Ramsey Island

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll 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. If you are dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

10 questions to ask before booking

Repairing versus replacing in Ramsey Island

A new 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. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Take a look at our pricing.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes an hour or two. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  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. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What affects the price in Ramsey Island

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

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