About our toilet chip repair in Witcombe

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. We are often asked to fix chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, on pedestals, toilet pans and porcelain.

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.

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire toilet

Most clients in Witcombe get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Signs you need toilet chip repair in Witcombe

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

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Damage from dropped items
  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Witcombe

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

For anyone letting property in or around Witcombe, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Repair or replace in Witcombe?

Replacing a 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. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • 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’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

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

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take an hour or two, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  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. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

FAQs for Witcombe

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What about a leaking crack?

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

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
