About our toilet chip repair in Almshouse Green
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. We are often asked to fix damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, on porcelain, toilet pans and pedestals.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What else we do in Almshouse Green
Repairing versus replacing in Almshouse Green
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Why us?
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- One price list for the whole UK
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Questions from Almshouse Green
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
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.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you work in Almshouse Green?
We do. We send a technician to Almshouse Green for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you cover the whole of Essex?
All of Essex, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What a repair cannot fix
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 pictures and we will say what we think.

How the visit works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes an hour or two. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
