Need toilet chip repair in Six Ashes?

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes an hour or two. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

About our toilet chip repair in Six Ashes

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Our repair technicians work on pedestals, porcelain and toilet pans, and the jobs we see most are marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Six Ashes. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire toilet

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Six Ashes: your questions answered

What areas do you cover?

All of Shropshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

When to call us in Six Ashes

Toilets and cisterns normally get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Chips on the pan or rim

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • When it can be used again
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Six Ashes

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Six Ashes use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Shropshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Should you replace it?

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. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
