How we handle toilet chip repair in Southrop

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We are frequently asked to fix damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim, in toilet pans, vitreous china and porcelain.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Questions from Southrop

What does toilet chip repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

10 questions to ask before you book

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes one to two hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage

How we price toilet chip repair

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Colour-matched on site
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
