When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Toilet chip repair in Ash Green without replacing anything

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Our technicians work on toilet pans, pedestals and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people get in touch are damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ash Green use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What toilet chip repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Ash Green. What changes the price is:

  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Ash Green. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Questions from Ash Green

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Do you work in Ash Green?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Ash Green from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

How much does toilet chip repair cost in Ash Green?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CV7 postcode.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes one to two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
