Toilet chip repair near Steep

Steep questions

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Hampshire.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Toilet chip repair in Steep without replacing anything

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We’re frequently asked to fix pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan, in pedestals, toilet pans and vitreous china.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repairing versus replacing in Steep

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Steep

  • No need to remove anything
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour-matched on site

Read our pricing.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Steep

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Hampshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

What affects the price in Steep

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

When to call us in Steep

Toilets and cisterns typically get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What prep work is covered

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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.
