Toilet chip repair at your home in Coatham
A crack that leaks cannot 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. Our technicians work on porcelain, toilet pans and pedestals, and people most frequently call us about marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- No extra charge for your area
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- 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’ll say what we think before you book.

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Coatham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes an hour or two. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Coatham
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. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

What else we do in Coatham
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- Something in shot to show the size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
