Toilet chip repair at your home in Thrumpton

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Typical jobs include damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, on cisterns & lids, toilet pans and porcelain.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area 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 clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Thrumpton questions

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

When can you do it?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How we price toilet chip repair

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the entire toilet

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
