Advice
About our toilet chip repair in Gresham
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Typical jobs include marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid, in vitreous china, cisterns & lids and toilet pans.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
Landlord and trade work in Gresham
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
If you manage property in Gresham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Gresham

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Gresham. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire toilet, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Gresham: your questions answered
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
