About our toilet chip repair in Ryall

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We are frequently asked to fix marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, in porcelain, cisterns & lids and toilet pans.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dorset. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Our hiring checklist

Ryall questions

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you cover Ryall?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Ryall and the rest of Dorset. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

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

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your DT6 postcode.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Ryall, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes an hour or two, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

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.

When we would advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot 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’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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