Toilet chip repair near South Anston

Toilet chip repair in South Anston without replacing anything

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Typical jobs include marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, in cisterns & lids, pedestals and vitreous china.

In a smaller place like South Anston, most homes are houses and bungalows, many with suites that have been in for years. If a piece is chipped, repairing it keeps the suite together.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How we price toilet chip repair

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Work for landlords and builders

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

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Should you replace it?

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. In a smaller place like South Anston, getting trades out for a full replacement can take time to arrange. A repair is one visit from us.

Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

How the visit works

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 an hour or two. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on. For a home in South Anston, we normally park close by and start straight away, after agreeing the plan with you.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
