Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Toilet chip repair at your home in Busveal
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We’re frequently asked to fix chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid, on porcelain, pedestals and toilet pans.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take an hour or two, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

FAQs for Busveal
Do you cover Busveal?
We do. Technicians travel to Busveal from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What affects the price in Busveal
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- Something in shot to show the size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For anyone letting property in or around Busveal, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
