Trusted toilet chip repair in Red Hill

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes one to two hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  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. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Toilet chip repair in Red Hill without replacing anything

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched 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’ll say so if we find one. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Coventry and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

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

When to call us in Red Hill

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

What to look for in a quote

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How changes to the job are handled

How to compare quotes

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet needs 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. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
