Toilet chip repair in Wearde without replacing anything

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 you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on pedestals, toilet pans and vitreous china, and people most often call us about damage from dropped items and chips on the pan or rim.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repairing versus replacing in Wearde

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 normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Wearde: your questions answered

What does toilet chip repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Are you accredited?

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

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What we are called out for in Wearde

Toilets and cisterns usually get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Damage from dropped items
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Marks on the outside of the pan

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How the colour is matched
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Wearde

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

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We don’t 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.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Wearde, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
