Toilet chip repair at your home in Ash
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, 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. Typical jobs include chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, across vitreous china, toilet pans and pedestals.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is 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.

Ash: your questions answered
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you cover the entire of Surrey?
All of Surrey, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Should you replace it?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Ash. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
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 photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes an hour or two, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
