Repairing versus replacing in Sheldwich Lees

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • No extra charge for your area

Toilet chip repair at your home in Sheldwich Lees

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Common call-outs are for marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, in vitreous china, cisterns & lids and porcelain.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Sheldwich Lees and across Kent. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take one to two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

What we’re called out for in Sheldwich Lees

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

Look out for these signs:

  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Chips on the pan or rim

Before booking anyone

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Choosing a repair company

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)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Sheldwich Lees

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
