Toilet chip repair in Vigo

Toilet chip repair in Vigo, done in place

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, on pedestals, cisterns & lids and porcelain.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Common questions in Vigo

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Are there extra charges for Vigo?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What affects the price in Vigo

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take one to two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  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. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Same prices wherever you are

Take a look at our pricing.

Landlord and trade work in Vigo

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Common problems we fix in Vigo

Toilets and cisterns generally get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. 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
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

What to look for in a quote

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 you book.

Materials we repair

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