About our toilet chip repair in Howden Clough

A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll 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. We’re often asked to fix chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, across porcelain, toilet pans and cisterns & lids.

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.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes one to two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Howden Clough

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Howden Clough. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Repairing versus replacing in Howden Clough

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
