How we handle toilet chip repair in Church Houses
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We regularly repair cisterns & lids, vitreous china and toilet pans, and the jobs we see most are chips on the cistern lid and damage from dropped items.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Other services in Church Houses
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Church Houses as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take an hour or two. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Common questions in Church Houses
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Do you work in Church Houses?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Church Houses. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Repair or replace in Church Houses?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
