Work for landlords and builders

Toilet chip repair at your home in Bures
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. If you are dealing with chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, we can generally put it right, on cisterns & lids, pedestals and vitreous china alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What affects the price in Bures
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Bures. The price reflects:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire toilet
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes one to two hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Related advice
When to call us in Bures
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly often.
The things clients generally mention when they call are:
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items
Questions to ask before booking
- How the room is protected while they work
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Who turns up on the day
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. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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 normally cheaper.
