Toilet chip repair at your home in Trentham

Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan, we can generally put it right.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Trentham: your questions answered

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Trentham.

What does toilet chip repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your ST4 postcode.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What about a leaking crack?

No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

When to call us in Trentham

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Chips on the cistern lid

Questions to ask before booking

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price covers travel

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why Trentham clients choose us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Work done at your home or business
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One visit for most repairs

Read our prices page.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take one to two hours.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  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. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to get a price

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Trentham, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Trentham as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
