Toilet chip repair at your home in Selsdon

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. If you are dealing with chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, we can help, on pedestals, vitreous china and cisterns & lids alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Selsdon as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes one to two hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the area is dry

Ask for a price

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Selsdon, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Landlord and trade work in Selsdon

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, 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 work on in Selsdon

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Selsdon questions

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Surrey.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
