Toilet chip repair for Strumpshaw homes

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Strumpshaw. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One picture of the entire toilet
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Toilet chip repair in Strumpshaw without replacing anything

A crack that leaks cannot 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 the toilet stays in place. Common call-outs are for chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, across porcelain, toilet pans and vitreous china.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

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 leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes an hour or two. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Strumpshaw questions

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Norfolk. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Strumpshaw.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
