Toilet chip repair for Sticker homes

Toilet chip repair at your home in Sticker

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 you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, we can help, on pedestals, porcelain and vitreous china alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Porcelain
  • Toilet pans
  • Cisterns & lids

10 questions to ask before booking

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sticker use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Sticker: your questions answered

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Are there extra charges for Sticker?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, so Sticker is covered. Prices do not change with location.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

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

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes an hour or two, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Same prices wherever you are

Take a look at our pricing.

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the entire toilet
  • Natural light rather than flash

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Sticker, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
