Toilet chip repair near Symondsbury

How we handle toilet chip repair in Symondsbury

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Typical jobs include marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and vitreous china.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow an hour or two. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Colour-matched on site

Read our full price list.

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 pictures.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

FAQs for Symondsbury

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.

Do you cover the entire of Dorset?

All of Dorset, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

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

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material

If you’re in Symondsbury and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
