How we handle toilet chip repair in Stratton St Michael

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Common call-outs are for chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, across porcelain, toilet pans and cisterns & lids.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Questions from Stratton St Michael

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for an hour or two. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your NR15 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Related advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stratton St Michael

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
