Toilet chip repair in Scole Common

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take an hour or two. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

About our toilet chip repair in Scole Common

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair pedestals, toilet pans and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Do you need toilet chip repair in Scole Common?

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Aftercare advice
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How changes to the job are handled

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

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.

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. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • 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 work on in Scole Common

  • Pedestals
  • Porcelain

Landlord and trade work in Scole Common

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Scole Common as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Scole Common. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Questions from Scole Common

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Will it make a mess?

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

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What about a leaking crack?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
