Toilet chip repair in Stretton-on-Fosse, done in place

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Our technicians work on vitreous china, toilet pans and pedestals, and people most frequently call us about chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One picture of the entire toilet
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes an hour or two, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Do you need toilet chip repair in Stretton-on-Fosse?

Toilets and cisterns typically get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.

10 questions to ask before booking

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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

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

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
