Toilet chip repair at your home in Fortis Green
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We are often asked to fix chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, on toilet pans, vitreous china and cisterns & lids.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Landlord and trade work in Fortis Green
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.
If you manage property in Fortis Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Common questions in Fortis Green
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole toilet and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Are there extra charges for Fortis Green?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
