Book toilet chip repair in St Cyrus

Toilet chip repair at your home in St Cyrus

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair pedestals, porcelain and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Choosing a repair company

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

St Cyrus: your questions answered

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Are there extra charges for St Cyrus?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What about a leaking crack?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Are you accredited?

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

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow an hour or two. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt 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.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Get a quote

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Landlord and trade work in St Cyrus

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Repairing versus replacing in St Cyrus

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. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
