Toilet chip repair in Tong Norton

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Toilet chip repair in Tong Norton without replacing anything

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Our technicians work on pedestals, porcelain and vitreous china, and common reasons people get in touch are pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Shropshire. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Common questions in Tong Norton

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can landlords book you?

Do you work in Tong Norton?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Tong Norton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you quote from pictures?

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes an hour or two in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  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. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Tong Norton. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
