About our toilet chip repair in Stramshall

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Stramshall: your questions answered

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

How much does toilet chip repair cost in Stramshall?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you come to Stramshall?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Stramshall. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Staffordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

When we would advise against a repair

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)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work

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

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes one to two hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Common problems we fix in Stramshall

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
