Toilet chip repair for Styrrup homes

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Toilet chip repair in Styrrup without replacing anything

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 don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Typical jobs include chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, across toilet pans, pedestals and porcelain.

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

Common questions in Styrrup

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

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

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Common problems we fix in Styrrup

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Styrrup. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Styrrup clients choose us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No need to remove anything

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes one to two hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
