About our toilet chip repair in Bredhurst
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 is what we find. We work on porcelain, cisterns & lids and toilet pans, and the jobs we see most are damage from dropped items and pieces knocked off during fitting.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Bredhurst and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, 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
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
If you’re in Bredhurst and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Common questions in Bredhurst
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Bredhurst.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
