Toilet chip repair in Sherington

About our toilet chip repair in Sherington

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Our technicians work on pedestals, vitreous china and toilet pans, and common reasons people get in touch are pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Common questions in Sherington

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

What about a leaking crack?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. 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. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  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

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Sherington

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

Repairing versus replacing in Sherington

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

When to call us in Sherington

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How your room will be protected
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

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’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
