About our toilet chip repair in Swindon

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will 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. If you are dealing with chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How we price toilet chip repair

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Landlord and trade work in Swindon

Letting agents often 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.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Swindon use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Repair or replace in Swindon?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Swindon. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

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

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take an hour or two, and we leave the room as we found it.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
