Book toilet chip repair in Tir-Nest

For landlords and businesses

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

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Toilet chip repair in Tir-Nest, done in place

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not 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 is what we find. Typical jobs include marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, in pedestals, toilet pans and vitreous china.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repair or replace in Tir-Nest?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire toilet
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes an hour or two. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What we are called out for in Tir-Nest

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • 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’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Tir-Nest

Common questions in Tir-Nest

Do you cover Tir-Nest?

We do. We send a technician to Tir-Nest for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire toilet and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Are there extra charges for Tir-Nest?

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

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
