How the visit works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow one to two hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
- We sand it flush.
- The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Related advice
Toilet chip repair in Goverseth, 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. If you’re dealing with pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How we price toilet chip repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Goverseth. What changes the price is:
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Goverseth. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire toilet, we can price the job without visiting.
For landlords and businesses
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 work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Goverseth as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
