Toilet Chip Repair for Earl's Common homes
Toilet chip repair in and around Earl's Common: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Pieces knocked off during fitting

Toilet chip repair in Earl's Common, done in place
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Typical jobs include pieces knocked off during fitting and marks on the outside of the pan, across vitreous china, cisterns & lids and pedestals.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

The process
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes one to two hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- We polish the repair to blend it in.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Earl's Common questions
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, 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.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you cover the entire of Worcestershire?
We cover the whole UK, including Earl's Common and the rest of Worcestershire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Repair or replace in Earl's Common?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
