How we handle toilet chip repair in Theale

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, we can generally put it right, on porcelain, vitreous china and pedestals alike.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repairing versus replacing in Theale

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We leave the room as we found it

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Theale

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

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

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

When can you do it?

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

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire toilet and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What a repair can’t fix

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Theale. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work

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.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it

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

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes an hour or two. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BS28 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
