Toilet chip repair for Row homes

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow one to two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  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. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Related advice

Toilet chip repair in Row without replacing anything

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We are frequently asked to fix damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, in cisterns & lids, porcelain and pedestals.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Questions from Row

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Row?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

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.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

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

Repair or replace in Row?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to compare quotes

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Row. The price comes down to:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
