Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, we can help, on toilet pans, cisterns & lids and vitreous china alike.

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Medway and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
If you are in Darland and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Medway.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Darland. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What else we do in Darland
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to one to two hours, including clearing up.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Darland, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
