About our toilet chip repair in Sapperton

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We’re frequently asked to fix chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, in pedestals, toilet pans and cisterns & lids.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sapperton

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Sapperton

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What about a leaking crack?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

See our full price list.

Signs you need toilet chip repair in Sapperton

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Marks on the outside of the pan

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • When it can be used again
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 normally the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, some problems need a different 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes 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. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
