Should you replace it?

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Toilet chip repair in California, done in place
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not 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 regularly repair porcelain, toilet pans and vitreous china, and common reasons people get in touch are marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in California and across Norfolk. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Common questions in California
How much does toilet chip repair cost in California?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in California.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Signs you need toilet chip repair in California
Toilets and cisterns usually get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who will actually do the work
- Aftercare advice
- How long it needs to cure
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Porcelain
- Pedestals
- Cisterns & lids
- Vitreous china
- Toilet pans
For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Advice
How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to California. The price comes down to:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- How many areas need work
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for California. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole toilet
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
