Well Head questions

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.

What does toilet chip repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Do you work in Well Head?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Well Head for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you cover the entire of Central Bedfordshire?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

How we handle toilet chip repair in Well Head

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. If you’re dealing with chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, we can help, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Well Head. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once

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

Quotes from your photos

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole toilet
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t 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 booking.

Materials we work on in Well Head

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

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Well Head use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Common problems we fix in Well Head

  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Chips on the pan or rim

10 questions to ask before booking

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It typically takes one to two hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

Most clients in Well Head get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
