About our toilet chip repair in Benacre
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Typical jobs include pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, across pedestals, porcelain and toilet pans.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow one to two hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Benacre. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

When to call us in Benacre

- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the cistern lid
Questions to ask before you book

- Aftercare advice
- How long it needs to cure
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What affects the price in Benacre
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Benacre
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Benacre questions
