Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
About our toilet chip repair in Churchend
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched 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 chips on the pan or rim, across toilet pans, porcelain and vitreous china.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Damage from dropped items
- Marks on the outside of the pan
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What preparation is included
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
