The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow an hour or two, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Related advice
Toilet chip repair at your home in Cane End
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. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim, we can usually put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Cane End questions
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you cover Cane End?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Cane End from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How much does toilet chip repair cost in Cane End?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
When to call us in Cane End
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Damage from dropped items
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What aftercare is recommended
- How soon you can use it again
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- 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 pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Cisterns & lids
- Porcelain
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Vitreous china
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Cane End
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the entire toilet
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your RG4 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

For anyone letting property in or around Cane End, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
