Need toilet chip repair in Upper Boddington?

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes an hour or two, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry

Related advice

Toilet chip repair in Upper Boddington without replacing anything

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Our repair technicians work on porcelain, pedestals and vitreous china, and people most frequently call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common problems we fix in Upper Boddington

Toilets and cisterns normally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

The most common problems we are called about are:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Choosing a repair company

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Should you replace it?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

What we can’t put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
