Toilet chip repair at your home in Avery Hill
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Common call-outs are for damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, in porcelain, pedestals and cisterns & lids.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What affects the price in Avery Hill
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Avery Hill. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
If you’re in Avery Hill and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes one to two hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

FAQs for Avery Hill
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Are there extra charges for Avery Hill?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Greater London, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
