How we handle toilet chip repair in Standon Green End

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, 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 toilet pans, porcelain and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting.

Rural addresses like Standon Green End just need a little planning, and we will plan the visit around it.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to an hour or two, tidy-up included. In a village or hamlet like Standon Green End, access can be the only tricky part. Once we’re there, the toilet chip repair works exactly as anywhere else.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the area is dry

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
