Toilet chip repair in South Wimbledon

Toilet chip repair in South Wimbledon, done in place

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, we can generally put it right, on cisterns & lids, pedestals and porcelain alike.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in South Wimbledon, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Work for landlords and builders

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

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How to compare quotes

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take an hour or two, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
