Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
How we handle toilet chip repair in Earlstone Common
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not 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’s what we find. Our repair technicians work on toilet pans, vitreous china and cisterns & lids, and people most often call us about chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan.
In and around Earlstone Common, older homes can have toilets that are hard to replace like for like. Repairing it keeps the bathroom as it is.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Common questions in Earlstone Common
Do you take on commercial work in Earlstone Common?
Yes. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations and work for schools, leisure centres and businesses. Tell us about access and timings for the building.
Can you restore the original toilets in an older house in Earlstone Common?
Frequently, yes: original pieces are normally worth keeping. Photos let us tell you what we would recommend.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
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.

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do you cover the whole of West Berkshire?

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Repairing versus replacing in Earlstone Common

Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
