Repair or replace in Fobbing?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How we handle toilet chip repair in Fobbing
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We work on vitreous china, porcelain and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take one to two hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand the repair level.
- The glaze is colour matched and finished.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Fobbing questions
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
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.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Landlord and trade work in Fobbing
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
What affects the price in Fobbing
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
