Need toilet chip repair in Somerton?

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

About our toilet chip repair in Somerton

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Common call-outs are for marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, on toilet pans, porcelain and pedestals.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Somerton, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Same prices wherever you are

Read our pricing.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole toilet and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

What areas do you cover?

All of Oxfordshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes 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. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
