Toilet chip repair in Spixworth

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

About our toilet chip repair in Spixworth

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, we can normally put it right.

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

Spixworth questions

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you cover Spixworth?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Spixworth. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What affects the price in Spixworth

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish

We do not add 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.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Most clients in Spixworth get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes an hour or two. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

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