Trusted toilet chip repair in Sandy Lane

When we’d advise against a repair

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)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Sandy Lane

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

Toilet chip repair in Sandy Lane, done in place

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 will say so if we find one. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, in porcelain, vitreous china and cisterns & lids.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Sandy Lane. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Repairing versus replacing in Sandy Lane

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

What you get with us

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take an hour or two, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
