How we handle toilet chip repair in Walkford

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We work on cisterns & lids, porcelain and pedestals, and common reasons people get in touch are pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dorset. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot 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 pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

What we are called out for in Walkford

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Damage from dropped items
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Marks on the outside of the pan

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. We do not 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.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Walkford: your questions answered

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

What about a leaking crack?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Walkford, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Walkford

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dorset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we do, step by step

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. Most visits take one to two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the 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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
