Toilet chip repair at your home in South Pill

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Typical jobs include chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, on pedestals, cisterns & lids and porcelain.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in South Pill and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Choosing a repair company

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes one to two hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  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 colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Common questions in South Pill

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Repairing versus replacing in South Pill

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
