Need toilet chip repair in Shellbrook?

Toilet chip repair in Shellbrook without replacing anything

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire toilet and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Our hiring checklist

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Shellbrook. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire toilet
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Landlord and trade work in Shellbrook

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

For anyone letting property in or around Shellbrook, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Shellbrook. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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.
