Advice
Toilet chip repair in Fordham Heath, done in place
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. We work on vitreous china, toilet pans and pedestals, and people most frequently call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
What affects the price in Fordham Heath
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole toilet
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
