Toilet chip repair in Tidnor, done in place

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. If you are dealing with chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, we can generally put it right, on toilet pans, porcelain and vitreous china alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tidnor as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Common questions in Tidnor

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

What information do you need?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

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

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Tidnor. The price reflects:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For a price in Tidnor, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes one to two hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  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. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your HR1 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
