Trusted toilet chip repair in Storthes Hall

How we handle toilet chip repair in Storthes Hall

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Common call-outs are for marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, in cisterns & lids, porcelain and vitreous china.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Replacing a 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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We leave the room as we found it

FAQs for Storthes Hall

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you work in Storthes Hall?

We do. We send a technician to Storthes Hall for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you quote from pictures?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes one to two hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Storthes Hall, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Related advice

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can price the job without visiting.
