About our toilet chip repair in Cross Inn

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s chips on the pan or rim and pieces knocked off during fitting, we can typically put it right.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Cross Inn as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Landlord and trade work in Cross Inn

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Letting agents frequently 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.

Repair or replace in Cross Inn?

A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One visit for most repairs

Take a look at our prices page.

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Porcelain
  • Vitreous china
  • Pedestals
  • Toilet pans
  • Cisterns & lids

What affects the price in Cross Inn

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole toilet
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole toilet, we can give you a fixed price.

Common problems we fix in Cross Inn

Toilets and cisterns generally get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.

The things customers typically mention when they call are:

  • Pieces knocked off during fitting
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Damage from dropped items

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • When it can be used again
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
