Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Toilet chip repair at your home in Freehold
Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Whether it’s chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Freehold as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Freehold. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the whole toilet
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Common questions in Freehold
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
