About our toilet chip repair in Treskerby

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We regularly repair porcelain, pedestals and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes an hour or two, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Repair or replace in Treskerby?

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What toilet chip repair costs

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

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Treskerby, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

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.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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