Trusted toilet chip repair in Tondu

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

About our toilet chip repair in Tondu

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Our repair technicians work on vitreous china, porcelain and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

FAQs for Tondu

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can landlords book you?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes an hour or two. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price
