Book toilet chip repair in Tre-pit

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire toilet
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Tre-pit, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

How we handle toilet chip repair in Tre-pit

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Our technicians work on porcelain, cisterns & lids and toilet pans, and the jobs we see most are chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan.

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. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Landlord and trade work in Tre-pit

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes one to two hours in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
