About our toilet chip repair in Goose Green

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. Whether it’s pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim, we can help, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

How to prepare

Related advice

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Goose Green

  • Porcelain
  • Cisterns & lids
  • Vitreous china
  • Toilet pans
  • Pedestals

What toilet chip repair costs

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Goose Green. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire toilet, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Goose Green as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

If you manage property in Goose Green, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Goose Green: your questions answered

Can you fix a cracked toilet that leaks?

No. That needs a new toilet. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.

How much does toilet chip repair cost in Goose Green?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire toilet and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
