Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Five Ash Down. The price comes down to:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Toilet chip repair in Five Ash Down, done in place
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Common call-outs are for chips on the cistern lid and pieces knocked off during fitting, in pedestals, toilet pans and cisterns & lids.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Five Ash Down and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Five Ash Down
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, 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 repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Repair or replace in Five Ash Down?
