Toilet chip repair near Saighton

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Toilet chip repair in Saighton, done in place

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Our repair technicians work on porcelain, vitreous china and toilet pans, and people most frequently call us about marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t 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.

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to one to two hours.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the 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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Related advice

Should you replace it?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What affects the price in Saighton

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Saighton. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire toilet

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CH3 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Saighton: your questions answered

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do you cover Saighton?

We do. Technicians travel to Saighton from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Will it make a mess?

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

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
