Toilet chip repair in Chestnut Street, done in place

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Common call-outs are for marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting, in vitreous china, cisterns & lids and porcelain.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Chestnut Street: your questions answered

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

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Do you come to Chestnut Street?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Chestnut Street from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What areas do you cover?

All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Chestnut Street. The price reflects:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

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

Work for landlords and builders

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

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

How it works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes one to two hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
