Toilet chip repair near Vogue

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes one to two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

About our toilet chip repair in Vogue

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. If you’re dealing with chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Everything repaired in place

Vogue: your questions answered

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?

We cover the entire UK, including Vogue and the rest of Cornwall. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What affects the price in Vogue

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Vogue. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Landlord and trade work in Vogue

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Vogue

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
