About our toilet chip repair in Stubshaw Cross

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. If you are dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, we can help, on porcelain, pedestals and cisterns & lids alike.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wigan. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

FAQs for Stubshaw Cross

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Stubshaw Cross?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What about a leaking crack?

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

Are there extra charges for Stubshaw Cross?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Repairing versus replacing in Stubshaw Cross

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow an hour or two from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

What we are called out for in Stubshaw Cross

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.

  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Chips on the pan or rim

Before you book anyone

  • How to look after the finish
  • How the colour is matched
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Stubshaw Cross

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
