Trusted toilet chip repair in Shewalton

Toilet chip repair in Shewalton without replacing anything

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, across cisterns & lids, porcelain and pedestals.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

10 questions to ask before booking

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes an hour or two, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Shewalton. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole toilet, we can price the job.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Shewalton

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Colour-matched on site
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
