About our toilet chip repair in Allen's Green

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Our technicians work on cisterns & lids, porcelain and vitreous china, and common reasons people contact us are pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Allen's Green

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Work done at your home or business

Allen's Green: your questions answered

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole toilet

Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Allen's Green, and we will reply with a fixed price.
