How we handle toilet chip repair in Whitemoor

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’ll tell you if that is what we find. Our repair technicians work on pedestals, toilet pans and porcelain, and the jobs we see most are pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes an hour or two. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace in Whitemoor?

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Whitemoor

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • What it’s made of, if you know

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Whitemoor: your questions answered

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

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

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Work for landlords and builders

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

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

When to call us in Whitemoor

Toilets and cisterns generally get chipped during fitting, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

What your quote should include

  • What preparation is included
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Who turns up on the day
