Toilet chip repair in Tandridge

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Toilet chip repair in Tandridge without replacing anything

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Our repair technicians work on porcelain, toilet pans and vitreous china, and people most often call us about marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Surrey. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

FAQs for Tandridge

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

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

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How do I get a price for toilet chip repair in Tandridge?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your RH8 postcode.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Tandridge

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Common problems we fix in Tandridge

Toilets and cisterns generally get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.

People normally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

Before you book anyone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What preparation is included
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How long it needs to cure
