Toilet chip repair for South Witham homes

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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

How we handle toilet chip repair in South Witham

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched 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’s what we find. We work on porcelain, vitreous china and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to South Witham. The price comes down to:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Common problems we fix in South Witham

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

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

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

Common questions in South Witham

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What does toilet chip repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take one to two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Repairing versus replacing in South Witham

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
