Trusted toilet chip repair in Upwood

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Toilet chip repair in Upwood without replacing anything

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We are frequently asked to fix marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, across cisterns & lids, porcelain and toilet pans.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Questions from Upwood

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

What about a leaking crack?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you cover the whole of Cambridgeshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Upwood included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Do you cover Upwood?

We do. We send a technician to Upwood for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not 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 photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Vitreous china
  • Toilet pans

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Landlord and trade work in Upwood

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Upwood use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. 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 it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
