Our hiring checklist

Toilet chip repair at your home in Crossway

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Whether it’s damage from dropped items and chips on the cistern lid, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Questions from Crossway

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole toilet and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Crossway

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not 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 photos, as it can add time.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Crossway

If you manage property in Crossway, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How it works

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.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get 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, and you will get a fixed figure back.
