What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Toilet chip repair at your home in Upper Affcot

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, we can help.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Signs you need toilet chip repair in Upper Affcot

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

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

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the colour is matched
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Upper Affcot, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Upper Affcot

Are there extra charges for Upper Affcot?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most customers in Upper Affcot get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
