How we handle toilet chip repair in Stratton Audley

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you’re dealing with chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Stratton Audley

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What about a leaking crack?

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

Do you come to Stratton Audley?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Stratton Audley for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What we cannot put right

Some jobs aren’t 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)

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Stratton Audley

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Repair or replace in Stratton Audley?

A new toilet means 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. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Stratton Audley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Advice

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
