About our toilet chip repair in Spaunton

We rebuild the damaged area and match it 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. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, in vitreous china, toilet pans and porcelain.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

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 pictures

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Spaunton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Questions from Spaunton

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

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

What we are called out for in Spaunton

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes an hour or two. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
