Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Callands. What changes the price is:
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Most customers in Callands get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Callands
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Common call-outs are for chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, across pedestals, toilet pans and vitreous china.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Pedestals
- Cisterns & lids
- Toilet pans
- Vitreous china

Common questions in Callands
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire toilet and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Warrington, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
