Toilet chip repair near Stoke Dry

Toilet chip repair in Stoke Dry, done in place

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Typical jobs include chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, in vitreous china, cisterns & lids and porcelain.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Our hiring checklist

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for one to two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  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 colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire toilet
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Stoke Dry

How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Stoke Dry?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Do you come to Stoke Dry?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Stoke Dry and the rest of Rutland. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

What about a leaking crack?

No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repairing versus replacing in Stoke Dry

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
