A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We are often asked to fix chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, across toilet pans, pedestals and porcelain.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Chalk Hill and across Central Bedfordshire. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

FAQs for Chalk Hill

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What about a leaking crack?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Do you cover the whole of Central Bedfordshire?

The entire UK, including all of Central Bedfordshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What affects the price in Chalk Hill

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Chalk Hill. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Cisterns & lids
  • Vitreous china
  • Pedestals
  • Toilet pans
  • Porcelain

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Central Bedfordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes an hour or two, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
