We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes an hour or two. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Toilet chip repair in Willoughby-on-the-Wolds without replacing anything

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We work on vitreous china, pedestals and cisterns & lids, and people most often call us about chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Willoughby-on-the-Wolds as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it

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.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Willoughby-on-the-Wolds

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

When we’d 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)

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
