Toilet chip repair for Wash Water homes

What affects the price in Wash Water

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the entire toilet
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Toilet chip repair at your home in Wash Water

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We are frequently asked to fix damage from dropped items and marks on the outside of the pan, across vitreous china, toilet pans and cisterns & lids.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes an hour or two. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  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. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Questions from Wash Water

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Wash Water is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

Repair or replace in Wash Water?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We leave the room as we found it

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
