Need toilet chip repair in Stoke St Milborough?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Toilet chip repair at your home in Stoke St Milborough

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We work on vitreous china, porcelain and toilet pans, and common reasons people contact us are pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire toilet

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace in Stoke St Milborough?

Landlord and trade work in Stoke St Milborough

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes one to two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t 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 pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
