Toilet chip repair near Shipton-on-Cherwell

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Toilet chip repair in Shipton-on-Cherwell without replacing anything

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, we can generally put it right, on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and porcelain alike.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Common questions in Shipton-on-Cherwell

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Does someone need to be in?

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shipton-on-Cherwell as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take an hour or two. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t 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 photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we are called out for in Shipton-on-Cherwell

  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

Questions to ask before you book
