Book toilet chip repair in Selsey

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire toilet

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

About our toilet chip repair in Selsey

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Typical jobs include pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan, in pedestals, toilet pans and cisterns & lids.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Questions from Selsey

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Selsey.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

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

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes an hour or two. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
