Toilet chip repair for Tower Hill homes

Toilet chip repair in Tower Hill, done in place

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 will tell you if that is what we find. Whether it’s chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can help, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Tower Hill

Toilets and cisterns normally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • No need to remove anything

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes an hour or two for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

How we price toilet chip repair

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

  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Common questions in Tower Hill

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

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