Toilet chip repair in Alkham, done in place
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched 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. Typical jobs include marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid, across cisterns & lids, pedestals and toilet pans.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Alkham and across Kent. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What else we do in Alkham
Landlords, agents and businesses in Alkham
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
For anyone letting property in or around Alkham, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
What affects the price in Alkham
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Alkham. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole toilet, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Repairing versus replacing in Alkham
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
What you get with us
- A fixed quote before booking
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Advice
Common questions in Alkham
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
