Toilet chip repair in Wilford

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Toilet chip repair in Wilford, done in place

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. If you’re dealing with damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can typically put it right.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Wilford, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

What we are called out for in Wilford

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.

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

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

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • When it can be used again
  • How your room will be protected

Repairing versus replacing in Wilford

Replacing a toilet needs 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. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One visit for most repairs

See our prices page.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow one to two hours.

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

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

Most clients in Wilford get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

Common questions in Wilford

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

What about a leaking crack?

No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What affects the price in Wilford

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
