Toilet chip repair near Swallowcliffe

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

About our toilet chip repair in Swallowcliffe

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, in toilet pans, pedestals and cisterns & lids.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes one to two hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

What affects the price in Swallowcliffe

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Swallowcliffe. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Swallowcliffe customers choose us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Swallowcliffe

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

What about a leaking crack?

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

What does toilet chip repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • 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 repair
