Landlord and trade work in Banham
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Banham as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Banham
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Typical jobs include chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items, across vitreous china, cisterns & lids and toilet pans.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Banham and across Norfolk. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
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. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
