Book toilet chip repair in Sibford Gower

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Toilet chip repair in Sibford Gower, done in place

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can generally put it right.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot 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)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Do you need toilet chip repair in Sibford Gower?

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

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Marks on the outside of the pan

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Aftercare advice
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Sibford Gower. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

See our prices page.

What toilet chip repair costs

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

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed price

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes one to two hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you quote from photos?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
