Toilet chip repair near Wendens Ambo

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

About our toilet chip repair in Wendens Ambo

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We are often asked to fix chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid, across vitreous china, toilet pans and pedestals.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to one to two hours, including clearing up.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Wendens Ambo

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Work done at your home or business
