Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Toilet chip repair in Cross, done in place
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the pan or rim, we can usually put it right.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Cross as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Questions from Cross
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can a chipped toilet be fixed?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Cross
If you manage property in Cross, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What affects the price in Cross
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Cross. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Other services in Cross
Repair or replace in Cross?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Cross. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
