Trusted toilet chip repair in Huxham's Cross Estate

Toilet chip repair in Huxham's Cross Estate without replacing anything

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Common call-outs are for chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid, across pedestals, vitreous china and toilet pans.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

  • Damage from dropped items
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repairing versus replacing in Huxham's Cross Estate

Replacing a toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire toilet, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
