Toilet chip repair in Sutton Cheney without replacing anything

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Common call-outs are for marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, on porcelain, vitreous china and pedestals.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What we can’t put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Sutton Cheney

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

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

Repairing versus replacing in Sutton Cheney

A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Sutton Cheney. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we’re called out for in Sutton Cheney

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.

People typically call us after spotting something like this:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • How to look after the finish
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What prep work is covered
  • How soon you can use it again

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sutton Cheney

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For anyone letting property in or around Sutton Cheney, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Common questions in Sutton Cheney

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

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

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take one to two hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
