Book toilet chip repair in Shelfield

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

How we handle toilet chip repair in Shelfield

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Typical jobs include marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, across toilet pans, porcelain and vitreous china.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

  • Chips on the pan or rim

How to compare quotes

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match

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 price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Shelfield, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take one to two hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

Common questions in Shelfield

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Do I need to be at home?

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

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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.
