Toilet chip repair for Stoke Canon homes

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Stoke Canon

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

Toilet chip repair at your home in Stoke Canon

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, in porcelain, pedestals and cisterns & lids.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How to compare quotes

Landlord and trade work in Stoke Canon

For anyone letting property in or around Stoke Canon, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Stoke Canon. The price comes down to:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know

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.

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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Repairing versus replacing in Stoke Canon

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • No need to remove anything
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

How the visit works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take one to two hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
