Toilet chip repair in Summerley without replacing anything

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you’re dealing with damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can normally put it right, on cisterns & lids, porcelain and vitreous china alike.

Whatever the size of the job, 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.

Summerley questions

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Do you cover Summerley?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Summerley. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Summerley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Summerley use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

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

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes an hour or two, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access
