Toilet Chip Repair for Renhold homes

- Repairs from £95
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
Toilet chip repair at your home in Renhold
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Our technicians work on porcelain, pedestals and vitreous china, and people most often call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

FAQs for Renhold
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Bedford Borough.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire toilet and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Repairing versus replacing in Renhold
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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 typically the cheaper route.
