Toilet chip repair in Springwood without replacing anything

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can usually put it right, on vitreous china, toilet pans and cisterns & lids alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Common questions in Springwood

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you come to Springwood?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Springwood from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Springwood. What changes the price is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Repairing versus replacing in Springwood

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Springwood use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take an hour or two, tidy-up included.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
