Toilet chip repair in Upper Sheringham without replacing anything

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. If you’re dealing with marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can generally put it right, on porcelain, vitreous china and cisterns & lids alike.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes one to two hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

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

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Upper Sheringham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

If you’re in Upper Sheringham and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Upper Sheringham

  • Colour mixed on the day to match

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think before booking.
