Toilet chip repair in The City

Toilet chip repair at your home in The City

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Common call-outs are for pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan, on porcelain, cisterns & lids and pedestals.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What affects the price in The City

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A photo taken from further back

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

If you manage property in The City, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

The City questions

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

Do you cover the whole of Buckinghamshire?

We cover the whole UK, including The City and the rest of Buckinghamshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Are there extra charges for The City?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How soon can you come?

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

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Chips on the cistern lid

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in The City

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow an hour or two. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price
