Toilet chip repair in Tower Hill without replacing anything

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Our repair technicians work on pedestals, cisterns & lids and vitreous china, and common reasons people contact us are pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take one to two hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

Most clients in Tower Hill get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tower Hill use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

10 questions to ask before you book

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

FAQs for Tower Hill

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
