How we handle toilet chip repair in Egerton Forstal

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Common call-outs are for chips on the cistern lid and chips on the pan or rim, across cisterns & lids, toilet pans and pedestals.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Egerton Forstal. The price reflects:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material

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’ll get a fixed figure back.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. 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 Egerton Forstal?

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Our hiring checklist

How it works

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes one to two hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

Related advice

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper 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 generally the cheaper route.
