About our toilet chip repair in Shelton

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will 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. We’re often asked to fix pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan, on pedestals, toilet pans and cisterns & lids.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

What toilet chip repair costs

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

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Shelton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

When to call us in Shelton

Toilets and cisterns normally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Whether they match the colour on site

10 questions to ask before booking

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why Shelton customers choose us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

Honest limits

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)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes an hour or two, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price
