Repair or replace: which is better?

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

About our toilet chip repair in Silk Willoughby
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 you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Typical jobs include marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, in cisterns & lids, toilet pans and porcelain.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Advice
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- A crack that leaks water

Common problems we fix in Silk Willoughby
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
The things customers typically mention when they call are:
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Marks on the outside of the pan
Questions to ask before booking
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How changes to the job are handled
- If travel is included in the price
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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.
What affects the price in Silk Willoughby
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NG34 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
