Toilet chip repair in Blackhall Rocks, done in place
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We regularly repair cisterns & lids, pedestals and porcelain, and the jobs we see most are chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Common questions in Blackhall Rocks
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you come to Blackhall Rocks?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Blackhall Rocks. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Should you replace it?

What affects the price in Blackhall Rocks
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
