  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

How we handle toilet chip repair in Cock Alley

A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on cisterns & lids, vitreous china and porcelain, and the jobs we see most are damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repairing versus replacing in Cock Alley

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What affects the price in Cock Alley

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to an hour or two.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Cock Alley: your questions answered

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you come to Cock Alley?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Cock Alley from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
